New Review For Movie In the Family
To see it is to sit there for long stretches amazed at how clumsy, fake and misguided it is. But then, five minutes later you might easily be riveted and moved by its awkward brilliance.
Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle Trevor St. John is cute and broody-mouthed as the deceased lover; Wang, the movie's writer-director, is touchingly, disarmingly open; and the kid, Sebastian Banes, is adorable.
Marsha McCreadie-Village Voice No doubt you've noticed the nearly three-hour runtime, but please don't let that dissuade you: Every moment counts in this gripping tale ...
Keith Uhlich-Time Out New York As Wang holds us in rapt attention, not only with his steady pacing, but with the hard realism of the screenplay, the characters retain a coldness that never breaks.
Guy Dixon-Globe and Mail Wang chooses gentle storytelling as a tool of persuasion rather than soap-box hectoring to make his point: that love - in all its forms - can transcend the greatest obstacles.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star This deeply humanistic, profoundly touching work representing independent cinema at its finest should be seen by far wider audiences.
Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter (Writer-director Patrick) Wang's deliberate, naturalistic style proves to be both a strength and a weakness. In the final analysis, the overall timeliness of Wang's storyline as well as the film's lack of sentimentality is of considerable value.
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest Despite its length and deliberate pacing, this is a film that is cathartic like no other film I have seen in a long time. An eloquent but non-propagandistic plea for gay rights.
Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews Will remind viewers of the emotional tugs of a KRAMER VS. KRAMER.
Mark R. Leeper-Mark Leeper's Reviews Wang's unforced, contemplative approach seems like the perfect way to underline his message.
Richard Knight-Knight at the Movies In the Family says very little and moves hardly at all, but it captures invisible rhythms in our lives as human beings that very few American movies ever get close to.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid More than just a carefully-crafted exercise in naturalism and restraint - Family is a beautiful, bold, and staggeringly moving film.
Brian Juergens-AfterElton.com Between the slow unfolding and the understated performances, experiencing this film is like being briefly dropped into someone else's life. In a good way.
Liz Braun-Jam! Movies The fact that the film paints Joey as such a resolutely good guy throughout robs it of a certain dramatic complexity.
Ethan Alter-Television Without Pity An acutely felt, altogether devastating family drama as intimate and affecting as it is sprawling and untamed.
Rob Humanick-Slant Magazine Ultimately worthwhile tale of a gay custody battle: important, rewarding viewing, but marred by directorial indulgence and excessive length.
