Reviews


63
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
It may work for those in search of a good cry but as a story of a damaged woman to touch the soul, it misses the mark.
63
Observer - Unnamed
Has brief moments of levity and charm, but mostly it's depressing.
60
Time Out - Unnamed
The problem, however, lies squarely with Portman herself, who (Oscar nod or no) seems unlikely to ever achieve a tone between histrionic and affectless.
58
The A.V. Club - Noel Murray
The book may have been too unwieldy for Roos to wrangle. There's a lot of story (and backstory) here, which Roos tries to squeeze in every which way.
50
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Opportunities for bad behavior abound in Waldman's novel - the author's prerogative. Roos, though, hasn't cracked the puzzle of how to explore that behavior on screen in such a way that the characters behave badly in interesting, rather than arbitrary, ways.
