Boxoffice Magazine -
A film with a big heart; it's an eccentric dramedy and a crowd pleaser.

New York Magazine (Vulture) -
Blessed is the go-for-it movie that can make room for dissonances and weirdness.

Rolling Stone -
This movie wins you over, head and heart, without cheating. It's just about perfect.

Entertainment Weekly -
Win Win, it turns out, isn't a tale of facile victory. It's a movie about how loss makes everyone do things they'll both defend and regret.

The Hollywood Reporter -
Think "Napoleon Dynamite" and "Little Miss Sunshine." In many ways, Win Win fits that mold, which should make it McCarthy's most broadly appealing movie to date.
