Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Mark Sommer (24) for Buffalo News (278) on 22 Jun 2017

Hayek and Lithgow are outstanding in their lead roles as spiritual opposites, though one wishes the script included more exchanges between them…

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Barry Paris (96) for Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (258) on 22 Jun 2017

It's billed as a comedy, but I'm not sure it is - despite John Lithgow's brilliantly entertaining performance as Strutt…

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Leonard Maltin (609) for leonardmaltin.com (584) on 21 Jun 2017

Disarming in its simplicity while simultaneously being thoughtful and provocative--the skill of its execution make it compelling, even suspenseful…

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Josh Bell (1,421) for Las Vegas Weekly (1,340) on 21 Jun 2017

White and Arteta have trouble wrapping up the thin story, but for decent stretches of time, they approach something like enlightened political…

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Al Alexander (533) for The Patriot Ledger (721) on 16 Jun 2017

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Daniel Barnes (335) for Sacramento News & Review (1,702) on 15 Jun 2017

Beatriz at Dinner, while smart, observant and well-acted, is an almost excessively minor culture clash drama…

Consider Mike White's clever drama the 21st century version of My Dinner With Andre -- with shivs…

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Katherine Monk (493) for Ex-Press.com (333) on 15 Jun 2017

It's a fish-out-of-water scenario with Beatriz flopping on the top deck while a gaggle of gin-and-tonic sippers ogles. It's painful…

By Joshua Rothkopf (1,058) for Time Out (7,510) on 15 Jun 2017

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Robert Horton (590) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 15 Jun 2017

Review of Beatriz at Dinner (2017)

By Chris Knight (998) for National Post (1,405) on 14 Jun 2017

Beatriz at Dinner is an angry condemnation of willful, well-to-do blindness. But I wish it displayed more teeth and claws…
