Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Sean P. Means (2,056) for Salt Lake Tribune (1,927) on 24 Aug 2012

Hope Springs works best in its minimalist moments, when there's only three (or fewer) actors onscreen, and they're all catching fire at the same time…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Frances Morton (22) for Flicks.co.nz (982) on 22 Aug 2012

Attempts to be a relatable chick flick for the gold card crowd, but the characters are so one-dimensional and cliché…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Philippa Hawker (221) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 22 Aug 2012

A sense of well-executed blandness sets in…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Margaret Pomeranz (380) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 22 Aug 2012

I reacted against it and they've got this adolescent attitude to sex that I found irritating too. Come on, grow up, guys…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By David Stratton (799) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 22 Aug 2012

The film isn't one of those dumb comedies - it's really quite a serious and I thought extremely touching and intimate film, and the performances…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Russell Edwards (40) for sbs.com.au (697) on 22 Aug 2012

Mercifully, David Frankel (The Devil Wears Prada) directs in that anonymous TV style that has no auteurist imprint but knows enough not to…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Cj Johnson (473) for FILMINK (Australia) (1,405) on 22 Aug 2012

A boring, depressing and inane look into a failing middle class marriage - that is unaided even by the class of its lead stars…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Leigh Paatsch (1,103) for Herald Sun (Australia) (1,081) on 22 Aug 2012

Hope Springs is not so much a film that will grown on you, as one that will grow around you…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Lori Hoffman (553) for Atlantic City Weekly (553) on 22 Aug 2012

This would be a Lifetime movie with a lesser cast, and even with this amazing trio, it drags along with only the occasional moments of honest insight…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Jackie K. Cooper (1,018) for jackiekcooper.com (943) on 21 Aug 2012

A portrait of a marriage that has some comedic moments but also has a dramatic impact. Streep and Jones give award winning performances…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Chris Stuckmann (217) for Moviedex (362) on 21 Aug 2012

At this point, I'm sure even Streep knows it's a cliché to bring attention to her magnificent performance…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Andrew L. Urban (972) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 17 Aug 2012

The premise is built on such solid and serious drama - and is so sharply observed - that it can take quite a heavy battering of humour, which…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Louise Keller (804) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 17 Aug 2012

Every bit as scrumptious as anticipated…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Richard Knight (277) for Windy City Times (216) on 17 Aug 2012

The strong acting of the two leads is in service to a well-intentioned but very talky script…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By James Mottram (656) for The List (2,018) on 14 Aug 2012

There's much here to enjoy, even if the incessant upbeat soundtrack and picture-postcard locales add a slightly too-jaunty sheen to three fine…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Jeff Bayer (445) for The Scorecard Review (437) on 12 Aug 2012

This is a drama (not comedy) that is probably the most honest portrayal of therapy on film. If you are old, see this movie…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Steve Persall (1,105) for Tampa Bay Times (1,287) on 12 Aug 2012

As Kay and Arnold lurch toward intimacy, the roles bring out a playful side seldom seen in Streep and practically never in Jones, his signature…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By John Beifuss (1,947) for Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) (1,944) on 12 Aug 2012

Scenes from a Marriage,' with a case of the cutes…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Ben Kenigsberg (863) for Time Out Chicago (129) on 10 Aug 2012

Springs insists on maintaining just enough comedy to keep the project commercial, which essentially means reducing two protagonists with a…

Review of Hope Springs (2012)

By Matt Brunson (2,422) for Creative Loafing (2,337) on 10 Aug 2012

It should have been this summer's Julie & Julia or The Devil Wears Prada: a delightful Meryl Streep vehicle geared toward mature moviegoers…
