Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Jason Reitman forgot the tapioca.
"Labor" isn't just a word in the title of Jason Reitman's new film, it's a description of what it feels like to sit through the movie.
The story unfolds with an earnestness so implacable that on the rare occasions when a bit of humor sneaks into the proceedings it feels like an uninvited party guest.
Engagingly sappy.
