My Salinger Year's reviews
Media reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
"Falardeau hurries through with a bullet-points-style approach (...) Often more jocular than insightful or touching, the film has an emotional temperature that doesn't begin to rise until very late".
Indiewire
"Falardeau adds a curious chapter to Salinger's mythology (...) But it often trips on the self-serious nature of its premise, and struggles with an antiquated quality out of sync with its timeline".
La Razón
"Mediocre (...) has a structure very similar to that of 'The Devil wears Prada' (...) but it takes itself very seriously. What we lose in caricature we gain in topic. (.. .) Weaver's looks are less autoparodic, and the situations, much more tedious."
El Mundo
"A pretentious film (...) The director does not spare any of the resources (or only tricks) that the entire film with aspirations to modern is obliged to reproduce. (...) everything is there as if from a manual of what pretentious it was."
El Periódico
"A balance Salinger (...) it offers the kind of story of initiation and learning that overuse has turned into a formula. And it does so in a way that is unequivocally conventional and routine."
The Guardian
"A bafflingly insipid, zestless, derivative film (...) A simperingly coy knock-off of 'The Devil Wears Prada' without the sexiness and fun".
Variety
"It doesn?t show a complex enough representation of either adult life or the New York literary world (...) It never convinces".
