Hello, My Name is Doris offers awkward humor that will be panic-inducing for some audiences, but it's simultaneously very funny, heartfelt and in the end will make you smile.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 1, 2024

You cheer Sally Field's Doris through every wobbly step of her moving, funny and confronting chapter of accidents.

Early on in the film John says, "I like you Doris." I predict by the end of the film you will too.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 3, 2021

Sometimes, the formula works and when you have a lead actress the caliber of Sally Field there's a pretty good chance it's really going to work.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 10, 2020

You could go see it in theaters to support indie films... It's not bad.

It's worth a watch.

...this film is really the Sally Field Show, and it reminds us yet again why she's been in the entertainment business for over fifty years.

| Feb 13, 2020

What makes this film a delight, and frankly saves it from being just another oddball self-exploration flick, is both the way the character of Doris is written, and the spectacularly nuanced performance that Sally Field gives in the title role.

| Original Score: B | Oct 22, 2019

Showalter offers the audience a coming-of-age tale, with a 68-year-old Sally Field at the center...And it fits Field like a glove.

[It] is worth seeing, primarily for Field's terrific performance, a demonstration of how a skillful actor can transform lesser material.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 7, 2019

The film has one of the best endings you can imagine. [Full review in Spanish]

| Apr 29, 2019

The perfect antidote to the unending strain of Apatow offshoots: It balances classy, screwball comedy, bone-deep drama, and old-fashioned romance with the finesse of an Olympic gymnast.

| Original Score: 8.5/10 | Feb 21, 2019

A delightful diversion that showcases Sally Field. It's a film as cute and cuddly as its lead

| Original Score: B | Jan 15, 2019

Hello, My Name is Doris is indeed a good greeting for introduction, but as a sturdy and consistent character study it never quite gels although the always resourceful veteran Sally Field is a welcoming, timeless selling point.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 9, 2018

"Hello, My Name is Doris" never quite strays into anything deeper than what it presents, and the film spends too long on the unrequited love between Doris and John, but it has a certain and distinct charm that's hard to escape.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 1, 2018

Doris is an extraordinary character who grabs the reins of her life after a lifetime of sacrifice for others. While her actions are rather unusual, her feelings are recognizable, and anyone can identify with her bid to shake up things.

| Aug 23, 2018

"Hello, My Name Is Doris" is a film that proves we are never too old to feel young, but disproves that with age comes wisdom - all in a very genuine and humorous way.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 22, 2018

Sally Field is remarkable as the star of Hello, My Name is Doris.

| Nov 16, 2017

Doris may be a bit clueless, but the movie doesn't deny [Sally] Field her sexuality.

| Nov 4, 2017

[Doris] may initially be more pathetic than the feistier women of a certain age recently played by Lily Tomlin (Grandma) and Blythe Danner (I'll See You in My Dreams), but her success at reshaping her life is no less pleasurable to watch.
