Everything Must Go Ratings & Reviews
MrPoke
April 3, 2025
Gut-wrenching. Depressing. Horrifying. Yet beautiful. This is the life we all try to avoid, yet may fall in.
IFC.com
Matt Singer
Everything Must Go's minor flaws serve to accentuate just how precise and moving the rest of it is.
Slate
Dana Stevens
This isn't Ferrell's first dramatic role; he played seriocomic leading men in Stranger Than Fiction and Woody Allen's Melinda and Melinda. But it's the first one that provides a glimpse at his possible future as a Bill Murray-style character actor.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Rush draws on the intense attachment we can feel for the mundane objects in our lives. For Nick, these things are talismans from a past that promised a lot more than it delivered.
Detroit News
Tom Long
In the end, Everything Must Go is something of a consciously static study in sadness, both well-made and wearying.

Will Ferrell's brand of comedy doesn't appeal to me, by and large. My favorites of his films are not the crowd-pleasers, but Stranger than Fiction, an offbeat comedy-drama, and Elf...
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Taking stock and letting go -- of superfluous things, of worn-out love -- is a strong theme. But the progression of the script is like Nick's self-help program. We're familiar with the steps.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Surprisingly, Ferrell underplays it nicely, neither milking Nick's misfortunes for laughs nor asking for our pity.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
The big picture is famil iar -- busted middle-age man, suburban alcoholic despair -- yet the details are so finely rendered that the overall impression is potently strange.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
A superstar like Ferrell could coast through disposable comedies, but "Everything Must Go" is a keeper.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
No great epiphanies, just a few days, a little perspective, nicely told.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Everything can go. Sometimes it does go. The movie tells a pertinent story about what happens next.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Everything Must Go isn't a comedy, but it's not entirely a tragedy, either, and it straddles this razor's edge with a deeply nuanced aplomb.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Will Ferrell delivers a performance of implosive intensity that rings true in every detail.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
There's nothing terribly surprising about this movie's dramatic arc, but it's nicely executed, and Ferrell's restrained, almost gentle performance is a revelation.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Rush extrapolates a narrative that is less jarring and more familiar than anything in Carver, but nonetheless true to the writer's tough, compassionate and intimately knowing apprehension of masculine defeat.
USA Today
Scott Bowles
If he isn't careful, Will Ferrell is going to become a bona fide actor.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It lives up to its title in ways its maker never intended.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
In truth, this would be rather familiar indie fare without its perfectly-cast star, who fearlessly alternates between bitter humor, aggressive desperation, and gentle helplessness.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"Everything Must Go" is not all the film it could have been, but is more worth seeing than a lot of other recent releases.
