Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Steve Persall (1,105) for Tampa Bay Times (1,287) on 30 Jan 2014

It's all bathetic enough for Labor Day to be subtitled The Prisons of Madison County…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Ann Hornaday (1,919) for Washington Post (9,851) on 30 Jan 2014

It’s difficult to believe a word of Labor Day, but then again you don’t have to in order to luxuriate in Winslet and Brolin’s bubbling,…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 30 Jan 2014

This is win-win for everybody, but it's too win-win - a setup that short-circuits drama, that shoehorns a situation into a precooked formulation…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Marc Mohan (821) for Portland Oregonian (2,019) on 30 Jan 2014

While it's nice to see Reitman try to branch out from the hip, acerbic humor of Juno and Young Adult, his clumsiness with this more earnest…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 30 Jan 2014

Kate Winslet has such sound and reliable dramatic instincts (That Face doesn't hurt, either) she very nearly makes something of Adele…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Bill Goodykoontz (2,123) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 30 Jan 2014

Even with the talent involved, almost everything about Labor Day plays less like something you’d buy a ticket to watch and more like something…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 30 Jan 2014

Labor Day feels like a belabored, sappy slog…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 30 Jan 2014

The movie’s a somber affair, but if you see it in the right frame of mind, it’s the guilty-pleasure hoot of the season…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Stephen Holden (1,707) for The New York Times (9,847) on 30 Jan 2014

The movie’s principal saving grace is Ms…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 30 Jan 2014

Labor Day, adapted from a novel by Joyce Maynard, is the kind of movie that turns clarity into stultification; everything is perfectly clear…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Jeff Beck (630) for Examiner.com (1,617) on 30 Jan 2014

With Labor Day, Reitman diverges from everything we've ever known him for, and while change can be a good thing for some, unfortunately it…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Daniel M. Kimmel (1,403) for New England Movies Weekly (716) on 30 Jan 2014

Reitman loves to give us characters we think we know and then show us we don't know them at all…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Cameron Williams (256) for The Popcorn Junkie (236) on 30 Jan 2014

A film obsessed with extracting emotion by any means necessary, and Reitman is willing to forsake plot, characters, and common sense for those…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By David Berry (137) for National Post (1,405) on 30 Jan 2014

Labor Day is too often stifling rather than steamy, and a lot of that, curiously, has to do with the way people talk…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Katherine Monk (493) for Canada.com (402) on 30 Jan 2014

A placental mess of romantic schmaltz, 1970s period nostalgia and dubious bondage fantasy, Labor Day does not work the soft, hazy magic its…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Michael Sragow (1,413) for Orange County Register (218) on 30 Jan 2014

This hostage drama swiftly degenerates into a gauzy wish fulfillment about two outsiders finding each other in a love that must overcome boundaries,…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Richard Corliss (1,032) for TIME Magazine (1,130) on 30 Jan 2014

Suddenly Labor Day is not a movie but a Harlequin book cover, and Frank is a felonious Fabio…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Joy Tipping (21) for Dallas Morning News (1,592) on 30 Jan 2014

In compressing Maynard's deeply internal book into the necessarily visual film format, Reitman strips the story of nearly all of the book's…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Jason Zingale (478) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 30 Jan 2014

It's essentially a trashy romance novel disguised as an Oscar prestige movie - the kind of story that sets back feminism several decades…

Review of Labor Day (2013)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Beliefnet (937) on 30 Jan 2014

The entire last third of the film involves so many bad decisions-no, not just bad, catastrophically imbecilic-that we lose our sympathy for…
