Some New Trailer For Win Win
New Review For Movie Win Win
The rare, humanist beauty of Win Win is that none of its characters is a caricature, none of its plot twists a blatant play for tears or laughs, none of its appeal based on some mythical lowest common denominator.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post What's just delightful about this wittily observed and touchingly truthful affair is the fact it offers consistently sherbety entertainment in the moment but ultimately holds to its purpose of saying something useful and genuine about real lives.
Tom Huddleston-Time Out Giamatti excels as the weak-kneed Mike, nicely working his gift for inner conflict and outer bumbling. As his wife, Amy Ryan is a ballast of unflinching moral certitude.
Amy Biancolli-Houston Chronicle In the end the film stacks up just this side of twee, as the sort of quirky fare that's passably entertaining without ever offering anything real or remarkable.
Connie Ogle-Miami Herald [McCarthy's] writing reflects a wariness of human nature but he's not cynical; indeed, the story wraps up with a tenderness that feels true but completely without mush.
Mary F. Pols-TIME Magazine Win Win is a winner all the way.
Tom Long-Detroit News McCarthy understands the thrill of incontrovertible victory and our primal lust for it.
Scott Foundas-Film Comment Magazine A thoughtful study of relationships and family dynamics, Win Win wrestles the competition to the ground.
Amy Curtis-We Got This Covered McCarthy has found his emotional sweet spot, a gentle and complex story to set it in and the perfect title for it."
Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service "Win Win" continues McCarthy's streak of bringing realistic characters and realistic situations to life on the screen. He has clearly shown his talent for writing and directing, making him one of those directors to watch out for.
Jeff Beck-Examiner.com There's a real earnestness to the proceedings: if someone had relayed the setup to me via email or over cocktails, I would have bet heavily that we'd be looking at a sappy mess of clichés.
Gabe Leibowitz-Film and Felt One of the ten best films of 2011.
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest Win Win is worth a look look. As indie dramedies go, it's a good one.
James Plath-Movie Metropolis Going down for a short count
S. James Wegg-JWR Excellent performances of good characters in a story that's not as rich as it apparently believes itself to be.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy In Tom McCarthy's Win Win sports may seem to be the means for drama. But when considering the importance of wrestling to the characters, the sport shapes character and narrative.
Matthew Sorrento-Film International This combination comedy and drama works well, in part because of good performances by everyone.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope Deftly illustrates how life is complicated and it is that rare family film that portrays life's real challenges without glossing over the complexities of relationships.
Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah) Win Win isn't a morality play; it's just a really good story. But it does deal with an issue that couldn't be more relevant: Where do we draw the line when it comes to survival if it means clouding our sense of right and wrong?
Leonard Maltin-indieWIRE Is there anyone who can play an "ordinary guy" better than Paul Giamatti?
Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane Win Win is a warm, wonderful comedy, smartly written, full of great performances (particularly from supporting superstars Amy Ryan, Bobby Cannavale and Jeffrey Tambor) and bad haircuts (yeah, a lot of the characters have bad haircuts).
Simon Miraudo-Quickflix Beautifully observed, this serio-comic film is the stuff of life and, despite the plot contrivances, very engaging in its quiet way.
David Stratton-At the Movies (Australia) It's a wonderful screenplay; observant, wise and nonjudgmental, drawing out its universal relevance from an intimate and subtle story of human weakness and strength
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile This beautifully realised independent film about winning and second chances is one of those gems that easily finds its mark
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile A decent feel-good film, but I expected more from McCarthy.
Thomas Caldwell-Cinema Autopsy New Movie Images Win Win
