Top Critics Reviews

The best I can say is that it's another tour de force for Gyllenhaal, although his intensity isn't matched by the movie itself.

Director Jean-Marc Vallee doesn't seem to mind when his movies become sun-dappled insta-redemption stories so long as there's a bravura central turn holding it all down.

Thank god for Jake Gyllenhaal. Absent his performance, Demolition would have been a more unbearable slog than it is.

rotten:
There is much to savor here, especially the unforced performance of Judah Lewis -- one more recruit to the terrific roster of younger actors who are streaming into the movies. Yet the film lacks the courage of its affliction.

There's a beauty in the breakdown, and it's amongst the rubble that Davis finds himself living, rather than enduring, his life.
