Movie Reviews

  • when the truth (or believability) isn't being stretched, everything else-character details, sudden new sources of income-is kept vague
    by Melissa Anderson [Village Voice ]
  • unfortunately, the potential for screwball comedy is wasted because "L!fe Happens" never finds its thematic tone or comedic rhythm
    by Loren King [Boston Globe ]
  • this sets up the film's main sources of tension: the battle between raising a kid and raising hell, between baby time and time with friends
    by Amy Biancolli [San Francisco Chronicle ]
  • there are plenty of silly cliches and wasted opportunities
    3 of 5 by Elizabeth Weitzman [New York Daily News ]
  • some capable actors, however, go a ways toward making those movie cliches, at least in places, pleasant
    by David DeWitt [New York Times ]
  • overall however, the script prompts the actors to overplay their roles so broadly it's practically squirm-worthy
    by Justin Lowe [Hollywood Reporter ]
  • it all sounds dreadful, like the pilot for another brainless comedy series on network TV, but it grows on you
    2.5 of 4 by Rex Reed [New York Observer ]
  • if Krysten Ritter didn't already have a TV show, "Life Happens" would offer good material for an adaptation
    by Richard Roeper [Chicago Sun-Times ]
  • any hopes of "L!fe" upending the rom-com status quo are dashed
    2 of 4 by Sara Stewart [New York Post ]
