Reviews


70
New York Magazine (Vulture) - David Edelstein
Jake Paltrow's comedy takes familiar male-angst material and turns it into a painful--but fun--string of jokes.
70
Variety - Justin Chang
Though its forays into the subconscious may strike more adventurous cinematic palettes as precious and unimaginative, few will be able to resist Martin Freeman's appealing lead turn or the wry Brit wit that gives this fanciful confection a robust comic core.
67
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
The filmmaker's got good taste -- and luck -- in casting.
50
The Hollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt
There is a fine idea for a romantic comedy in Jake Paltrow's The Good Night but the writer-director, in his debut feature, never develops it much beyond the idea stage.
50
Village Voice - Unnamed
Director Jake Paltrow's feature debut has all the hallmarks of an earnest young man's feature debut, and while that is not necessarily a bad thing, I can only imagine that it fit Sundance like a fingerless glove when it had its premiere there earlier this year.
