Critic Reviews

Gianni Truzzi

Watts and Coffey may have vaulted Hollywood's gated enclaves, but this affectionate film shows they haven't forgotten, nor idealized, their days among the ranks of the struggling and ambitious. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

Ellie Parker is at once hilarious and harrowing, and in being so, seems right on target. Read full review

Roger Ebert

A good movie, fearless and true, observant and merciless. Naomi Watts was brave to make it and gifted to make it so well. Read full review

J.R. Jones

Most of the gags misfire, though some scenes are memorably tawdry. Read full review

James Greenberg

Entertaining and delightful. Watts proves that she is unmistakably outstanding in any role she assumes.
