Reviews & comments
Acting heaven
Noah Baumbach, (writer/director of ‘Greenberg’, ‘Frances Ha’, ‘The Squid & the Whale’ and screenwriter of Wes Anderson’s ‘Fantastic Mr Fox’ and ‘The Life Aquatic’), delivers a frothy, ensemble acting tour-de-force, in a movie immediately reminiscent of both Wes Anderson’s ‘The Royal Tenenbaums’ and Woody Allen’s ‘Hannah and Her Sisters’. Shot mostly in...

Variety
pressWith no shtick to fall back on, Sandler is forced to act, and it’s a glorious thing to watch.

Time Out
pressThere’s great energy to this film: quick dialogue, snappy performances and a lived-in feel make us quickly believe this world, its characters and their hang-ups.

The Telegraph
pressThe film doesn’t stint on emotional complexity, but it might be Baumbach’s most accessible to date.

The Guardian
pressIt’s a comedy that doesn’t really have, or aspire to, any very tragic dimension, but it’s touching. The quirks are underpinned by a heartfelt solidity.

Hollywood Reporter
pressBenefits from sterling turns from a wonderful cast, most notably Dustin Hoffman and, no kidding, Adam Sandler.
