Critic Reviews

  • William Goss, Film.com

    Swanberg gets to the heart of the matters of the heart with disarming doses of both charm and wisdom.

  • Amy Curtis, We Got This Covered

    Drinking Buddies wasn't the worst I've seen from Swanberg (luckily no meandering-film-student feel to this one), but it wasn't very compelling or interesting either.

  • Edward Douglas, ComingSoon.net

    A study of relationships between men and women and how attraction and chemistry can get in the way of keeping a friendship platonic.

  • Cory Everett, The Playlist

    Wilde & Johnson have such palpable chemistry that simple scenes of drinking, playing cards and joking around become filled with the suspense of whether or not they're going to make a move on each other. It helps that the pair are also really funny...

    'Drinking Buddies'. Easily Olivia Wilde's best performance to date, solid writing, and a refreshing take on relationships.
