Critics Consensus

Anchored by a pair of terrific performances swathed in vivid colors, Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar's English-language feature debut attests to his universal fluency in provocative filmmaking.

It is quite lovely in all the ways a Pedro Almodóvar movie can be. Striking and strange.

Fortunately, the film has as its leads Swinton and Moore, two of the most accomplished actors going. It’s a pleasure seeing them on screen together.

Rated: 3/4

What makes "The Room Next Door" uplifting is that it's not actually about death, but quality of life and acknowledging the importance of those we go through this journey with. It's about holding close, not letting go.

Rated: 4/4

Does being able to die at one’s own hand at the moment one chooses really seem the most pressing issue in America or the world today?

The Room Next Door wrestles with life’s most difficult questions in a gently moving and profound manner, and is as elegantly directed and acted as we’d expect from this level of elite talent.

Few contemporary filmmakers are as attentive to the radiance of light and color, shape, the glow of light in and on women’s eyes. <i>The Room Next Door</i> is a world of primary colors, of patches and blocks of red and green, bold Hockney-style splashes.

Rated: 5/10

Its a beautiful movie to look at, but the acting felt like workshop theater rehearsals and never rang true. I gave two stars for 1) the design and styling and 2) there were a few scenes that were thought-provoking.

Funny moments, heartfelt story acted out superbly. A little slow in the beginning, but then blossomed into a relatable storyline. Loved it. The dialog was insane! Can't imagine the effort these brilliant actors put into their craft.
