Mary Elizabeth Winstead gives a performance that is both fearless and nuanced...

Episode 17: Now We Live

There's an intimacy here that's often lacking in other romantic comedies.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead's electric and stunning performance is so smashingly good, so incisive and dangerous

Mary Elizabeth Winstead cuts a fierce edge as a woman scorned who was forced to grow up at a young age, confusing her idea of normal.

[Mary Elizabeth Winstead] is an absolute tour-de-force as a sharply hilarious comedienne desperate to make her life stable.

Despite the compelling chemistry between Winstead and Common, the film drags when it fixates on their relationship and the contrived obstacles that befall it.

| Original Score: 2.75/5 | Jul 16, 2019

A major strength of the film is the ensemble work of Winstead and Common, who together have a believable, warm chemistry.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 20, 2019

What is fresh about the film is that rather than be a set up for a climactic biographical confession, it so carefully paints the toxic environment women have to negotiate that her anger doesn't really feel like it needs explanation.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 14, 2019

What could have been a portrait of female fame and notoriety in 2018 ends up as just a tiresome, played-for-shocks romance.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Nov 27, 2018

Eva Vives has made an important and powerful film, against some odds. She's a woman and Hispanic. She refused to make Nina "nicer." It isn't surprising that funding was hard to come by.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Nov 10, 2018

All About Nina works well as an adult romantic comedy, a female perspective on the comedy world, and a star vehicle for Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 30, 2018

Like Nina, Winstead's performance is both honestly funny and drop-dead serious.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 25, 2018

... suffers from contrivances along the way, but generates genuine sympathy for Nina beneath her fragile yet abrasive exterior.

| Oct 19, 2018

Mary Elizabeth Winstead is a tour de force as self-destructive stand up comic Nina Geld. The brazen film unleashes plenty of ugliness on the audience which fortunately is counterbalanced by the superb performances.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 18, 2018

Nina is a tough woman to like but easy to love.

| Oct 18, 2018

Always a likable actor, here Winstead is at a charismatic high, carrying a mediocre film, making it impossible to turn off through her star power alone.
