Critic Reviews
-
Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee
An immediate guilty pleasure.
-
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Fizzles out in the third act, but we're long past caring. By then, Frances McDormand has usurped the movie and turned it into a lesson in character acting.
-
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic
Self-discovery seems to be the goal, but the revelations hardly seem worth the work.
-
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
McDormand is superb. Likewise Bale and Nivola.
-
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
If there is one reason to see Laurel Canyon, it's to witness McDormand in the kind of role she's long deserved.
