“..With an outstanding screenplay by Brian Koppelman and disciplined direction by Koppelman and David Levien, a story that could have been generic (or worse, scented with flowery bulls---) turns into a precise, honest, and affecting drama..”

by Lisa Schwarzbaum [Entertainment Weekly]
“..the film courageously shows its reprobate hero sliding further, not redeeming himself..”
by Melissa Anderson [Village Voice]
“..The bumps in the narrative can be jarring, but Douglas never makes a false move, delivering a tour de force in human weakness..”
by Peter Travers [Rolling Stone]
“..Solitary Man" is a movie about watching a guy spin his wheels while figuring things out..”
by Joe Neumaier [New York Daily News]
“..It offers audiences the pleasures of a screenplay whose every acerbic line is firmly rooted in character, and it hands Michael Douglas one of his best roles in years..”
by Justin Chang [Variety]
“..A terrific cast can't salvage a downer story about an arrogant heel..”
by Kirk Honeycutt [Hollywood Reporter]
“..a needlessly sly movie about the kind of problems that preoccupy people in show business-becoming sexually undesirable, not spending enough time with the kids, etc.-but Douglas makes all the contrivances feel like universal, soul-testing dilemmas..”
by Noel Murray [A.V. Club]
