Welcome To Me
hen she wins the Mega-Millions lottery, she immediately quits her psychiatric meds and buys her own talk show. Inspired by the immortal Oprah, she broadcasts her dirty laundry as both a form of exhibitionism and a platform to share her peculiar views on everything from nutrition to relationships to neutering pets.

Wiig's depiction of a woman whose stories are apt to end with the declaration "then I went off my meds" is as disquieting as it is scarily accurate.

Whatever the state of your mental health, you'll want to follow Alice down the rabbit hole.

Wiig delivers a standout performance that manages to make Alice at once interesting, humorous, irritating and infuriating, but always successfully stops just short of making her an object of ridicule.

Ultimately, you are tempted to conclude that the film is a bit like Alice's chat show: a vanity project.

"Welcome to Me" has its charming, funny and sensitive moments, but it also suffers from its own form of instability.

A funny and touching Kristen Wiig walks an acting tightrope in this dark comedy.
May 23, 2015
There's not much plot here and very little in the way of character development. Alice is defined by her disorder and the screenplay isn't interested in delving into her life and relationships.

It's a tricky business playing someone who is mentally ill and perhaps should be confined for observation, especially in a dark comedy. Wiig manages to make Alice funny as hell, endearing, sad and sometimes a little frightening.
May 07, 2015
There's dark comedy, and then there's take-no-prisoners, dare-you-to-keep-looking dark comedy. Kristen Wiig's "Welcome to Me" falls decidedly in the latter category, making us laugh but feel deeply unsettled about doing so.

Welcome to Me is an unsettling comedy, and I mean that in the best possible way.

No shortage of talent here. Pity they're all underused.
