Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Alex Falcone (24) for Willamette Week (516) on 26 Aug 2015

While the quasi-intellectual banter is fun, I just can't get too excited about whether or not two people I do not like are going to fulfill…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Bob Bloom (1,124) for Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) (1,017) on 26 Aug 2015

Outwardly, Gerwig creates a character who makes you cringe. At times, you are embarrassed for and by her…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Anders Wright (338) for San Diego Union-Tribune (1,408) on 26 Aug 2015

The best sorts of comedies are the ones that go where you least expect them to, and Mistress America does just that…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 26 Aug 2015

Baumbach is still invested in the lives of obnoxious, self-involved characters, and any resistance to that particular dramatic frequency is…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Stephen Silver (684) for Patch (52) on 26 Aug 2015

Starts out as a fairly good movie, and later turns into a completely different, much better one…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Matthew Lickona (530) for San Diego Reader (713) on 26 Aug 2015

A winning, slightly screwball investigation of the fraught relationship between writer and subject, or maybe artist and muse, or maybe both…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 26 Aug 2015

I can't think of a filmmaker more focused on the foibles of female relationships than Baumbach. He never sidesteps the issue…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Jason Zingale (478) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 26 Aug 2015

Much like Brooke's proposed restaurant, Mistress America is a mishmash of ideas that never really comes together…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Ken Eisner (445) for Georgia Straight (1,078) on 25 Aug 2015

Mistress America is buoyed by smartly expressed mixed emotions…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Jeff Baker (191) for Oregonian (1,550) on 25 Aug 2015

Mistress America is a different kind of channeling, straight through the screwball comedies of the 1980s, After Hours and Something Wild, back…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Kimberley Jones (866) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 25 Aug 2015

Mistress America is maybe Baumbach’s most probing consideration of the writer’s process and development, a continuing point of interest…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Brian Miller (136) for Seattle Weekly (293) on 25 Aug 2015

In a forgiving but not unrealistic way, the movie is a sunnier, distaff retelling of The Great Gatsby, where failure and self-reinvention are…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Robin Clifford (1,670) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 25 Aug 2015

Mistress America is not the best of Baumbach films but it is entertaining little film with a standout performance by Greta Gerwig…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Sam Woolf (118) for We Got This Covered (2,391) on 23 Aug 2015

Baumbach, Gerwig, and Kirke give wheel-spinning a good name with Mistress America…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Josh Larsen (2,042) for LarsenOnFilm (1,412) on 22 Aug 2015

keeps piling on the characters and complications until it's worked itself up from screwball comedy to straight-out farce…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Laura Clifford (2,742) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 21 Aug 2015

the film's abrupt switch from character-driven comedy into a slamming door farce feels like these players suddenly decided to put on a play,…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Wesley Morris (1,967) for Grantland (318) on 20 Aug 2015

With Gerwig, you worry that she seems to be winging it -- until you realize that she also knows how to fly…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Joshua Rotter (5) for SF Weekly (560) on 20 Aug 2015

Gerwig and Kirke's strong performances and onscreen chemistry, Baumbach's ability to capture the Big Apple's beauty, and the infectious '80s…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By James Verniere (1,180) for Boston Herald (1,433) on 20 Aug 2015

Not quite as good as you've heard, more neo-Woody Allen material from Baumbach and Gerwig, but often amusing…

Review of Mistress America (2015)

By Barry Hertz (792) for Globe and Mail (2,419) on 20 Aug 2015

Zippy, sharp and monstrously smart, Mistress America is not only Noah Baumbach's funniest film, but the best comedy of the year…
