The Greening of Whitney Brown Reviews

Movie Reviews

• until it flies off the rails in a third act so devoid of logic it could have been concocted on the moon

  by Gary Goldstein [Los Angeles Times ]

• there’s a fair amount of greening, but that doesn’t make Whitney any less grating

  by Sara Stewart [New York Post ]

• the film, both in scope and tone, has a downsized vibe that would have made it a much better fit on an ABC Family than in a movie theater

  by Michael Rechtshaffen [Hollywood Reporter ]

• its shiny confidence in the entertainment value of blaring soundtrack cues

  by Nick Pinkerton [Village Voice ]

• it's all extraordinarily predictable, made no more palatable by flat characters and a dull cast

  by Stephen Whitty [Newark Star-Ledger ]

• has few pretensions to depth, ambiguity or realism, relying on its name cast

  by Ronnie Scheib [Variety ]

• Gail Gilchriest's airheaded script grafts "Cinderella" to "My Super Sweet 16" with a grating lack of originality

  by Jeannette Catsoulis [New York Times ]

• by turns pleasant and preposterous

  by Carrie Rickey [Philadelphia Inquirer ]
