Grace Is Gone Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Not a great movie, simply functional, but Cusack gives a great performance.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Depicts a side of the Iraq war, the American home front, that has been barely touched in other Iraq war movies.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Despite the strength of the cast (in particular O'Keefe, who's making her film debut here and shows tremendous promise), it's hard to muster much enthusiasm for Grace Is Gone.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Good intentions can only go so far.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
A barbell of a movie that carries some weight at either end. What's in between is purely utilitarian, though.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
'Grace is Gone' works best in the quiet moments. ... Shelan O'Keefe couldn't be better ... this low-keyed weepie belongs to her.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
This is a movie that lobs even appropriate criticisms from a safe distance, a flaw its strengths can't overcome.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
In a year that has seen wave after wave of films addressing the war in Iraq with varying degrees of anger and frustration, Grace serves as a gently thoughtful coda and reminder of what continues.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
A moving and tender family drama, built on the foundation of a serious contemporary issue.
Newsday
Jan Stuart
Cusack has never been better; he disappears into his character's repressed skin so utterly, we can barely recognize in him the perky teen heartthrob of Say Anything.
AV Club
Tasha Robinson
Grace Is Gone attempts to address grief frankly, gently, and without didacticism, and it largely succeeds.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
For most of its 85 minutes Grace Is Gone, a small, tender film about contemporary parenthood in wartime, carries off a delicate balancing act.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Cusack's climactic confession is heartrending. But too many other moments strain credibility.
The Deadbolt
Brian Tallerico
It avoids all deeper issues inherent to its subject matter, choosing instead to simply be a slice of depressing life that you won't want to take.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
This is a very strong and very moving film.
Village Voice
Scott Foundas
Rather than challenging our national aversion to unhappy endings, both in life and in cinema, [director] Strouse plays right into it. He's devised Grace Is Gone to work on our sentiments the way a porn movie works on our libidos.
New York Press
Eric Kohn
Sure, it's a tearjerker with more than a few mushy moments of unhindered grief, but they match the situation. So does Cusack.
Associated Press
David Germain
It's stirring, even gut-wrenching, on the strength of John Cusack's terrifically restrained performance as a husband in denial over the death of his wife in Iraq.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Grace Is Gone grabs on to a name, a war, and the metaphor-come-to-life of a theme park with rides going nowhere. And we, the people, are spun around and shaken for tears.
