Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The snow leopard of romcoms: intelligent and screwball-funny.

Miller's characters are complete, singular people, and her take is thoroughly female. She subverts the genre, and wakes it up.

"Maggie's Plan" is Gerwig's show, and once again she proves to be one of the screen's most engaging presences.

Maggie's plan may or may not work out. But as a smart, perceptive commentary on modern times, "Maggie's Plan" succeeds beautifully.

Something between Shakespeare, Woody Allen and Noah Baumbach, a cautionary tale filled with Manhattanite wit and small moments that have the ring of truth.
