Acrimony's reviews
Media reviews
The Wrap
"While Tyler Perry?s Acrimony doesn?t quite live up to its stylish trailer ? that water-torture sound design promises a floodgate that will burst at any moment ? it?s the kind of ?women?s picture? that used to be Joan Crawford?s bread and butter, the sort that allows its star to glamorously lose her grip in a succession of great outfits".
Entertainment Weekly
"The 20 or so minutes we get of Henson?s rage are not enough to warrant the title or the ticket price".
New York Times
"Ms. Henson does what she can with a role that keeps her anger at a low simmer until requiring her to go full banshee within basically one scene. You can?t accuse her or Acrimony of being boring, but the film falls short of a design for living".
The Hollywood Reporter
"The film is so ridiculously overwrought that it makes the Madea films look subtle by comparison".
Variety
"A ludicrously scattershot drama in which overwrought feminine rage, diary-of-a-mad-woman craziness, and inept filmmaking are all but inseparable".
