May 26, 2006
We end up getting thin supporters as seen through the eyes of a main character that doesn't do anything.
April 09, 2005
The screenplay, by helmer Mangold, is by the numbers.
July 04, 2005
The two leads play to their strengths.
January 01, 2011
Powerful look at mental illness; ages 16+.

Sounding like the scribblings from a teenager's diary, the 28-year-old Ryder lapses into self-parody.
January 01, 2000
Shrewd, tough, and lively.
February 14, 2008
Meaty roles for an eager young female ensemble. On that level, and on several others, the movie triumphs.

Does it matter that every time Jolie's offscreen the film wilts a little? Ryder should be perfect as the bright spark; her lines are sharp as a knife. There's a gap, however, between what we hear and what we see.

It's difficult to imagine any actress today bringing more sentience and intelligence to [Ryder's] role.
January 01, 2000
Sensitive, well-acted.
January 01, 2000
The inclusion of this picture on [Mangold's] resume will only enhance his future prospects.
June 18, 2002
A muddled production that misses the jarring tone of the autobiographical book by Susanna Kaysen on which it is based. The film is entertaining, but not very powerful.
