Hysterical Blindness Ratings & Reviews
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Jas Keimig
Thurman and Rowlands both received a Golden Globe for their performances in this middling-to-good Mira Nair-directed HBO flick.
New York Magazine/Vulture
John Leonard
Let Gena and Ben remind you of old John Cassavetes movies.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
The actors pull out all the stops in nearly every scene, but to diminishing effect. The characters never change.
Film Threat
Chris Gore
Nair's attention to detail creates an impeccable sense of place, while Thurman and Lewis give what can easily be considered career-best performances.
culturevulture.net
Nigam Nuggehalli
The emotional overload of female angst irreparably drags the film down.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Everything was as superficial as the forced New Jersey lowbrow accent Uma had.
Boxoffice Magazine
Annlee Ellingson
Thurman and Lewis are hilarious throughout.
San Francisco Chronicle
Carla Meyer
Nair and writer Laura Cahill dare to build a movie around some flawed but rather unexceptional women, emerging with a fine character study that's short on plot but rich in the tiny revelations of real life.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
Nice piece of work.
