Lovely & Amazing Reviews

Despite the heavy subject matter, the film is packed full of wry observations that are crystalized by a stellar performance from Catherine Keener.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Jan 27, 2013

Mature story about relationships and family.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 2, 2011

Seldom do movies create focus through spontaneity, but Lovely & Amazing feeds on surprise

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 2, 2009

Exceeded all my expectations.

| Apr 29, 2009

This serio-comic family portrait about self-absorption, self-esteem and family dynamics is excellently acted but more blatantly offbeat than dramatic.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008

Actresses beware. Catherine Keener is quietly cornering the market on self-assured, sharp-tongued feminism.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 14, 2007

Has a lovely feel, interactions that are real & unafraid to broach life's insecurities -- ie: personal appearance from hair to body fat. However, doesn't add up to amazing.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 23, 2007

Who'd have thought spending 90 minutes with a bunch of neurotic women could be such fun? An intelligent, unassuming drama that's never less than enjoyable.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 30, 2006

Observed without corny resolutions and paced to allow for reflection, the film is understated but spot on.

I can't imagine why a guy would go to this movie. That is, unless he talks to me or some other guy who has seen it. Because it's one of the best films I've seen this year.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Oct 7, 2004

Captures the body-image insecurities of women while delving more than skin-deep into her characters' psyches.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 25, 2004

As in Walking and Talking, her comic lament on the evils that brides do to their maids of honor, [Nicole] Holofcener strikes a careful balance between distaff divertissement and stark, semiautobiographical realism.

| May 19, 2004

Not long enough to be a 'message movie', but insightful enough to hold our attention while exploring the lives of these characters.

| Original Score: 71/100 | Mar 2, 2004

Michelle isn't an easy woman to relate to let alone like, yet as the film progresses I was drawn more and more towards her inner warmth and charm discovering pieces of myself in her own persona.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 19, 2003

There are a lot of deeper issues in this film that most films don't focus and it's a credit to Holofcener that she brings it out.

After this, you'd like to think that the studios might let Holofcener turn her attention to a few more US 온라인카지노추천 shows. They need talents like her.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 26, 2003

A refreshing reminder that not every movie about women must be a hollow, empty, self-indulgent 'chick flick.'

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 28, 2003

"Lovely and Amazing is a story about real people. These people are insecure about their lives. They aren't convinced that there's some inner beauty about them. They see themselves as I suspect most people do, mostly for the flaws. However, these are still
