Frank Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Beneath those puppet-headed antics, and true to its title, Frank is improbably, disarmingly honest.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Michael Fassbender spends the majority of Lenny Abrahamson's irreverent comedy "Frank" buried underneath a giant plastic head, but the honesty of his performance is on full display.
Entertainment Weekly
Kyle Anderson
With the soulful Gleeson and a sweetly menacing Fassbender (under a giant helmet-head) at its center, the movie never loses its acerbic edge or its oversize heart.
HitFix
Guy Lodge
Pleasingly and perhaps surprisingly, given the extremities of the material, the cast plays crazy with cool, measured aplomb.
Film Comment Magazine
Jonathan Romney
It's sweet, just pithy enough, and brings a touch of critical sanity to the question of insanity as performance-it's a film that, you might say, has its head screwed on right.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
The whole thing is in danger of becoming arch and quirky, yet Abrahamson steers the final act of his drama toward a sombre, unhappy rumination.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
"Frank" has a wry sense of humor, the ring of authenticity and glimmers of genuine wisdom.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
A likable but ultimately slight arthouse comedy.
Detroit News
Tom Long
There's a perseverance to "Frank" that's also uplifting, a true spirit of unity among the damaged.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
Both Llewyn [Davis] and Frank may embody the spirit of the difficult musician, but Frank...is a more empathetic and engaging character, making Frank, the movie, a more bleakly funny yet ultimately touching film.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The movie's hipness quotient far outweighs its laugh quotient, though there's really no limit to the amusement of seeing someone bump around blindly in an oversize head.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Kristin Tillotson
A quirky, utterly engaging film that manages to be amusing, dark, surprising and poignant without wasting a single one of its 95 minutes.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
A functioning, funny, weirdly touching fable of artistic angst and aspiration, a meditation on fame and its terrors and the metaphoric usefulness of masks and huge fake heads.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
"Frank" is a true original, a film that heads in one direction only to veer off in another, yet never loses sight of where it's going.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A delightful, oddball surprise.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Odd, offbeat, somehow endearing, the bleakly comic "Frank" has its own kind of charm as well as some pointed, poignant things to say about the mysterious nature of creativity, where it comes from and where it might all go.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
"Frank" might be a less cute movie without the mask but it would probably be a better one.
Grantland
Wesley Morris
Things go from cutesy to clever to grim, from the band's country shack to the road, and it takes too long to get everywhere.
L.A. Weekly
Amy Nicholson
In small movements - the twitch of a hand, a wobble under a door frame, a beer and straw held uselessly by his painted mouth - Fassbender gives us glimpses of what Frank's isolating genius has cost him.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
"Frank" is a genuine original in a summer sea of sameness, and a darkly comedic manifesto against the cultural status quo.
