Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Duane Dudek (861) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 20 Nov 2008

It is a portrait of disappointment and melancholy, tickled by bits of wit, that defies logic and resists description…

By Jonathan Kiefer (305) for Sacramento News & Review (1,702) on 20 Nov 2008

Life is so complicatedly humiliating, Kaufman insists, and he's right. Too bad his insistence is so simple-mindedly aggrandizing…

Will truly screw with your head, if you let yourself get into it. I highly recommend you watch this film alone…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Jayk (19) on 16 Nov 2008

It's too bad more people won't appreciate this exceptional movie. Completely unique, very ambitious, and totally successful, in my opinion…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Michael Sragow (1,413) for Baltimore Sun (1,823) on 14 Nov 2008

As the movie rambles along with its own brand of quasi-magical surrealism, the links to real experience grow scarcer and more frayed…

This is what happens when faux intellectuals in Hollywood read a little existential philosophy and post modern theory at Brown and think they…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Austin Kennedy (419) for Sin Magazine (286) on 14 Nov 2008

Kaufman does all he can to throw in enough details to confuse the viewer, to the point of headache-inducing irritation…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 13 Nov 2008

Charlie Kaufman's existential fantasia with the odd name is a weird, tiresome rumination on love, hate and the creative process…

By Eric D. Snider (2,489) for EricDSnider.com (2,026) on 13 Nov 2008

It's an utterly brilliant film in that it evokes its intended feelings with apparent effortlessness -- not like a staged, contrived snapshot…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Andy Klein (675) for Los Angeles CityBeat (424) on 12 Nov 2008

It's really quite brilliant. But it's also so difficult and so emotionally downbeat that it's hard to characterize it as entertaining…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Jamess. (104) on 11 Nov 2008

This film was absurdly moving, and perhaps my favorite of this year. Charlie Kaufman has finally fully emerged as a titan of film…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 10 Nov 2008

As a director, Kaufman isn't yet his own best salesman. He's not enough of a visual stylist to sell his script's most challenging conceits…

By Walterego (1) on 09 Nov 2008

A torture to sit through. The only relief for me came when Hoffman attacks the grating Jennifer Jason Leigh and her awful German accent…

Review of Synecdoche, New York (2008)

By Tricia Olszewski (442) for Washington City Paper (500) on 09 Nov 2008

Kaufman's other works at least weaved a thread of hope within all their bends; here, the lack of it is glaring and sinks the viewer's spirit…
