Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A train wreck you can't help but watch.
– Robert K. Elder,
Chicago Tribune,
20 Jul 2002
rotten:
While the film at times feels like a clumsily acted play, a surprising turn by Delta Burke carries the cast out of the doldrums of an often-strained plot line.
– Erin Meister,
Boston Globe,
28 Jun 2002
rotten:
A movie that, while robustly performed ... has the strange effect of not so much opening up a play for the screen as closing it in.
– Geoff Pevere,
Toronto Star,
18 Jan 2002
fresh:
If the film's flaws are large, so are its laughs.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,

fresh:
There's a genuine sweetness and familial affection that shines through Sordid Lives, and enough oddball humor to keep it mooo-ving along.
– Moira MacDonald,
