      David C I'm no expert, but this film presents a different kind of realism--a realism that is a kind of raw, emotional observation from the perspective of a fly on the wall. To be allowed to see the couple's inner world, and especially Mattie's (played by the talented Greta Gerwig), is a rare glimpse into what is usually hidden. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/04/24 Full Review steve d The production value is weak but Greta Gerwig is (as always) fun. Her fans will find a lot to like. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member *yawn* Another mumblecore film; the proliferation of inexpensive digital filmmaking has brought us many. While this one is better than a few, it's not by much. It lacks an interesting plot, intelligent dialogue, and smooth tripod shots; difficult to find in these kind of films. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member The critics gushed with admiration for this personal examination of a relationship; if you can stand the rambling sentiments of the two star-directors, then this movie is for you. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Mumblecore is a terrible genre. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Genuine, but a lot less said than his other talkies. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      David Fear Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Leo Goldsmith indieWire Its surprisingly structured depiction of this relationship and its many private rituals and performances, which the film's unforgiving style continually strips bare Aug 8, 2009 Full Review Noel Murray AV Club Swanberg and Gerwig also have a gift for constructing the kind of moments rarely seen in contemporary American independent film. Rated: B+ Oct 17, 2008 Full Review Sarah Manvel Cinemattraction The tight focus on these two people does cross the line from careful attention into claustrophobic narcissism. Feb 10, 2019 Full Review Dave McDougall MUBI [Greta] Gerwig and [Joe] Swanberg's movie is dangerously honest about the territorial dynamics of relationships and the confusion we're left with when they end. Dec 13, 2017 Full Review Josh Bell Las Vegas Weekly Feels entirely true and real. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 13, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews
