pressWhere'd You Go, Bernadette might well be one of those films that the people who love the book will only ever mutter darkly about. But for me, who just wanted to see a mostly decent movie with a few moments of true inspiration, it worked pretty well.
Vulture
press[Linklater] can't find a suitable form for Maria Semple's patchwork best seller...
Los Angeles Times
pressSometimes idiosyncratic directors do surprisingly accessible and moving work when paired with more structured material and a strong and willing star, and so it is with Richard Linklater and "Where'd You Go, Bernadette."
The New York Times
pressLinklater's visuals are... unfussy, direct; as always, he creates felt intimacy among people.
Hollywood Reporter
pressBecomes compelling in its final act, but before that too often appears tonally addled and dramatically dawdling.
