Entertainment Weekly -
In hovering, The Squid and the Whale becomes its own realistic display of family entropy, as cautionary as it is educational.

|
Time -
The Squid and the Whale is domestic tragedy recollected as comedy: a film whose catalog of deceits and embarrassments, and of love pratfalling over itself, makes it as (excruciatingly) painful as it is (exhilaratingly) funny.

|
The New York Times -
Both sharply comical and piercingly sad. Mr. Baumbach surveys the members of the flawed, collapsing Berkman family with sympathy but without mercy, noting their individual and collective failures and imperfections with relentless precision.

New York Daily News -
A great divorce movie. It's also one of the canniest comedies ever made about a certain kind of literary pretension.

New York Post -
With its dry wit and all-star household, Baumbach's movie resembles Wes Anderson's "The Royal Tenenbaums" without the heavy whimsy.
