Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
This isn't a lousy film; it's a mediocre, ugly film about lousy people.
– Richard Roeper,
Chicago Sun-Times,
5 Mar 2015
fresh:
Hollywood has been disemboweling itself since... Sunset Boulevard and The Bad and the Beautiful, but those movies seem like Cream of Wheat compared to Cronenberg's wicked vision.
– J. R. Jones,
Chicago Reader,
5 Mar 2015
fresh:
"Maps to the Stars" loses some steam near the end, and its resolution has the predetermined quality of Greek tragedy writ small. Still, I found it (as the Replacements song says) sadly beautiful.
– Michael Phillips,
Chicago Tribune,
5 Mar 2015
rotten:
According to Cronenberg, the script for "Maps to the Stars," by Bruce Wagner, began life more than twenty years ago, and it shows.
– Anthony Lane,
New Yorker,

fresh:
There are scads of scabrous inside-Hollywood psychodramas, but never a festering pyre on the order of David Cronenberg and Bruce Wagner's Maps to the Stars. What a hyperfocused duo of ghouls!
