Review of August: Osage County (2013) by Owen Gleiberman for Entertainment Weekly — 24 Dec 2013
The movie is red meat for anyone who thrives on a certain brand of punchy, in-your-face emotional shock value. Yet the pull of what happens on screen came, for me, with a major qualification: I went with it, but I didn't totally buy it.
The film is a contraption that spreads its darkness like whipped butter on a roll.
