Nurse Betty Reviews
Variety
Emanuel Levy
In his third, most accomplished film, LaBute puts aside the inquiry of misogyny that dominated his previous work and immerses himself in a lighter romantic fable about the collision of fantasy and reality, with a terrific performance from Renee Zelwegger
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
LaBute didn't write Nurse Betty, but his fierce comic touch is, luckily, all over this movie.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Does LaBute feel any sympathy for his victimized women, or merely contempt for their weakness?
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
This comedy has a few violent scenes.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Swerving from viciousness to whimsy to dubious feminist fable, Nurse Betty doesn't jell. Still, with a cast as charmed as this, it comes oh so close.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
The actors hold the movie together, particularly Ms. Zellweger and Mr. Freeman, whose characters achieve a remarkable intimacy in a most unlikely situation.
Associated Press
Hillel Italie
The year's most enjoyable -- and most surprising -- fairy tale.
USA Today
Susan Wloszczyna
As it overdoses on quirks and violence, Nurse Betty isn't always the right prescription. But observing Zellweger as she dispenses her brand of movie magic definitely is good for what ails you.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
If Nurse Betty is any indication, these slightly more commercial movies won't be mere digressions or artistic sellouts; they'll be worth the wait, even if they aren't as distinctive or as sure-footed as his more challenging personal projects.
San Francisco Examiner
Wesley Morris
If the notion that the rancorous writer and director Neil LaBute cares about you sounds like a hoax, it probably is. But for most of his third film -- the erratic, groovy Nurse Betty -- he's convinced himself, and you as well, that it's true.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
This oddly cheerful, decreasingly dark comedy actually works and can boast some of the most enjoyable performances of the year.
Film.com
Ernest Hardy
Zellweger is the best she's ever been.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
A triumph for Mr. LaBute as it is for its cast, because its success is so dependent on its sustaining a precarious balance between humor and pathos, realism and fantasy.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Nurse Betty's two hallmarks are originality and star quality, both of which combine to draw the viewer through the film's occasional rough spots.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Nurse Betty is one of those films where you don't know whether to laugh or cringe, and find yourself doing both.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A masquerade that doesn't work.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
As with all good uses of enchantment, Nurse Betty deposits us, in the end, back where we started -- but different, changed, with new ways of looking.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
After a summer of brain-numbing junk, Nurse Betty seems like a reprieve.
