Reviews


80
L.A. Weekly - Ella Taylor
This is a very funny film about a creepy, excruciatingly lonely world.
80
The New York Times - Stephen Holden
An obscene, misanthropic go-for-broke satire, Pretty Persuasion is so gleefully nasty that the fact that it was even made and released is astonishing. Much of it is also extremely funny.
70
Los Angeles Times - Carina Chocano
It's too bad that the satire is not more pointed, because Pretty Persuasion is outrageously funny in short blasts, mainly thanks to James Woods at his most gleefully depraved.
60
The A.V. Club - Nathan Rabin
In a star-making performance, Evan Rachel Wood stars as essentially a younger version of Nicole Kidman's media-age femme fatale from "To Die For," an aspiring 15-year-old actress who hides a sharp, calculating mind behind a façade of vapid, chattering self-absorption.
50
Film Threat - Unnamed
Kills itself with unrestrained negativism, but almost resuscitates itself with some great comedy.
