Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
As a study of stasis and of people conscious of not living the lives they had imagined for themselves, the picture offers a bracing undertow of seriousness beneath the deceptively casual, dramatically offhand surface.

fresh:
A film of powerful, memorable moments -- some striking dialogue, some great performances, a handful of beautifully played, bracingly discomfiting love scenes -- in search of a structure and, perhaps, a soul.

rotten:
Noah Baumbach again investigates psychologically screwed-up people, although this time with much less comedic impact.

fresh:
Stiller is expert at playing self-indulgent types unaware of their boorishness, and Greenberg is no exception.

fresh:
What saves it, however, is Gerwig. The love story ain't credible, but her performance is, perfectly capturing a young woman who doesn't lack confidence so much as a sense of self.
