Darling Companion Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
Between the gypsy psychic and the distracting characters, "Darling Companion" loses its way.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
[It] has a fine cast, but doesn't seem to have much to say other than lamenting the unfairness of getting old.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
The dog had the right idea.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It is depressing to reflect on the wealth of talent that conspired to make this inert and listless movie.
Miami Herald
Connie Ogle
The movie takes a simple if shattering occurrence and uses it as a way to bring a family together, an old trick but one well played by director Lawrence Kasdan and his wife and screenwriting partner Meg.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
It's fun to watch Keaton and Kline together, bickering and (of course) bonding all over again.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
You wonder why this fine cast - which has nine Oscar nominations (with four wins) among them - would bother with something so featherweight...
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It's far from a great movie - an overwritten, underplotted vanity project that's a distant echo of what director Lawrence Kasdan could do in his prime. But it has Diane Keaton, and that's enough.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
A film no one will remember, not even the people who star in it.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Lawrence Kasdan's fitfully amusing comedy-drama starring Diane Keaton and Kevin Kline.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
"Darling Companion'' doesn't amount to much more than a fairly painless way for the AARP set to spend an hour and a half watching a movie with stars their own age.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Even as someone who enjoys the company of a dog, it didn't take long for me to wish the whole bunch of them would shut up, give up and go home. Get a bird or something.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A listless excursion into the luxurious problems of rich, white people.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Lawrence Kasdan's Darling Companion is one of those motion pictures I wish I liked more than I actually do.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Initially this struck me as something you'd take your grandmother to see, but by the end it seemed more like something your grandmother would take her grandmother to see.

...I found the movie disarming and quite likable. The cast couldn't be better, and the settings (Utah, substituting for Colorado, although there are some readily identifiable shots taken in Telluride) are beautiful.
DVDTalk.com
Jason Bailey
That's a fine cast, and the film is handsomely photographed in Colorado and Utah. It's all so nice. Too nice. Deathly nice.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Joseph's cynicism and wit are communicated with the spot-on casting of Kline, and Keaton ably conveys Beth's suppressed loneliness as well as her big heart.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
Darling Companion is a "Pretty White People with Problems" movie, but like the dog at its center, it cozies its way into your lap and stares at you adoringly until you resist its flaws and find yourself won over.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
How much more fulfilling it would have been to spend those hundred-odd minutes chasing a squirrel, taking a nap or disemboweling a stuffed animal on the living room rug.
