Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 11 Dec 2014

Well-acted, intermittently compelling, often incoherent but always offbeat, Inherent Vice is a twisting story about twisted California stoners…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Kyle Smith (1,916) for New York Post (6,650) on 10 Dec 2014

Inherent Vice, meandering even by Anderson’s standards, is easily the worst of his movies, a soporific 2½-hour endurance test…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Ben Kenigsberg (863) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 10 Dec 2014

In its graceful superimpositions and its use of water to evoke a more idyllic time (particularly in a rainy flashback set to Neil Young), Inherent…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Anne Thompson (51) for Thompson on Hollywood (89) on 10 Dec 2014

Anderson had long wanted to adapt Pynchon--this marks the first movie to do so. Is it successful…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Elizabeth Weitzman (1,905) for New York Daily News (5,623) on 10 Dec 2014

They’ve turned Thomas Pynchon’s work into a slapstick noir homage that doesn’t just reward but demands multiple viewings…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Chris Nashawaty (734) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 10 Dec 2014

Anderson's film is something to be experienced, like a psychedelic drug trip where the journey trumps the destination…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Josh Larsen (2,042) for LarsenOnFilm (1,412) on 09 Dec 2014

a witty, bleak and affectionate riff on the gumshoe genre…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Stephanie Zacharek (2,333) for Village Voice (8,525) on 09 Dec 2014

Inherent Vice isn't the towering masterpiece that those who admired There Will Be Blood and The Master were probably hoping for, and thank…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Keith Phipps (1,177) for The Dissolve (1,478) on 09 Dec 2014

It all serves a portrait of 1970 California that mixes absurdity with an air of looming cataclysm, a volatile formula that wouldn’t work…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for McClatchy-Tribune News Service (291) on 09 Dec 2014

Anderson loses his way, failing to thin out the novel and its overload of characters, piling scene upon scene that neither amusingly complicates…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Anthony Lane (1,079) for The New Yorker (1,837) on 08 Dec 2014

Inherent Vice is not only the first Pynchon movie; it could also, I suspect, turn out to be the last…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Ethan Alter (997) for Film Journal International (5,095) on 04 Dec 2014

Inherent Vice is confounding, challenging and consistently unique…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Radheyan Simonpillai (471) for AskMen.com (164) on 04 Dec 2014

A wildly entertaining, beautiful and hypnotic puzzler from a towering talent, Inherent Vice proves to be so much more than just the best film…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Bill Clark (530) for FromTheBalcony (528) on 04 Dec 2014

Seedy, drug-fueled, and absent any type of sense we're used to in film, Inherent Vice is a film destined to divide any audience that watches it…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Craig Williams (22) for CineVue (2,163) on 24 Nov 2014

A hilariously louche and ramshackle psychedelic noir, Inherent Vice is an audacious stylistic leap for Anderson, but his risks pay off beautifully…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 19 Nov 2014

Picture a Las Vegas buffet - there's too much stuff on your plate, and a lot of it is stale chunks of melon…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Richard Corliss (1,032) for Time (1,811) on 09 Nov 2014

Never quite transcending the sum of its agreeably disparate parts, IV is less groovy than gnarled and goofy, but in a studied way…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Glenn Dunks (375) for Junkee (216) on 17 Oct 2014

[D]oesn't necessarily make for a good way to spend almost three hours of your day…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Donald J. Levit (489) for ReelTalk Movie Reviews (1,771) on 09 Oct 2014

The confusion on the ground, in the air, and in the mind is so thick with smoke and mirrors that reality and illusion are not different the…

Review of Inherent Vice (2014)

By Dan Callahan (211) for TheWrap (3,203) on 08 Oct 2014
