Max Rose's reviews
Media reviews
Rolling Stone
In fact, despite age and illness, he remains a mesmerizing star in front of the camera, compelling to watch even (and especially) when sitting perfectly still.
The Washington Post
'Max Rose' seems to come from someplace personal, but its pain feels dialed down a notch to make it easier to digest.
Variety
Jerry Lewis makes an excruciating return to the bigscreen in this sappy sudser.
The New Yorker
Annybody who goes to 'Max Rose' hoping for gags and goofery will walk out frustrated at the end.
New York Times
'Max Rose', a soggy, fragile feature about love, death, marriage and memories, might never have made it to theaters were it not for its star, Jerry Lewis.
Roger Ebert
But in the end it?s the mediocrity of the scenario that resonates more.
The Wrap
Headlining a movie for the first time in two decades, the comedy legend?s presence isn?t enough to save this mawkish, leaden drama.
Los Angeles Times
This is a thoroughly painful experience.
The Guardian
'Max Rose' has the superficiality of a student film inexplicably bursting with famous people in it.
