Marriage Story's reviews
Media reviews
El Mundo
The proposal achieves the character of a miracle. The director has never before been more lucid, more fun, crueler and more transparent.
El Periódico
She's magnificent. The important thing here is not what we are told, because we already know it; the important thing is the finesse with which Noah Baumbach and his actors tell us.
El País
Dos actuaciones sobresalientes y un relato tan delicado como demoledor. Sus encuadres beben de 'Persona', de Ingmar Bergman. Pero encierran mucho más: la vida.
Fotogramas
A hybrid of genres ? comedy and family drama ? the judicial drama and even the thriller. Adam Driver, who here delivers what is most likely the role of his career (for the moment) dazzles on all terrains.
The Hollywood Reporter
Baumbach's best film to date. A fun work that, at least expect it, is also tender, something that is due to its two magnificent protagonists, who here offer the best interpretation of their careers.
Variety
A drama so well-crafted that it takes the director's status of 'The Squid and the Whale' to a whole new level.
The Wrap
It follows the line of a remarkable tradition of films that have analyzed the disorder of sentimental relationships. Devastating, essential and destined to be remembered.
Vanity Fair
A perfectly measured and nuanced portrait of a divorce. An ingenious film, narrated passionately and giving both sides of the coin a kind of melancholy parity.
Indiewire
It offers two core interpretations by Driver and Johansson that should be considered their best work so far. His brilliance lies in how he manages to transcend the merely common.
Screen Daily
A story that's hard to see thanks to the raw and impressive performances offered by Driver and Johansson. With an ingenious and clever script and Baumbach's demure style, this is a very peculiar work.
The Guardian
It offers magnificent performances by Johansson and Driver, and an original family package of witty dialogue with its own sense of absurdity.
Time
I think anyone who has seen a union that seemed to be perfect dissolve sits will feel identified with some aspect of 'Marriage Story', especially if there are children in between.
