Kurt Vonnegut: Unstuck in Time Ratings & Reviews
The Jewish Chronicle
Linda Marric
A thrilling and personal account of a man who stood for much more than many give him credit for.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
A remarkable documentary about a writer like no other.

Cole Smithey
Trauma, warts, fame, and family. Tears may fall.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
An endlessly fascinating portrait of the life and work of the feisty, creative, sunny, prophetic, and paradoxical American writer.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
[A] hybrid of a Kurt Vonnegut biography and co-director Robert B. Weide's personal narrative of his friendship with Vonnegut. Weide could have inserted himself a little less in this movie, but it's still a fascinating portrait of this influential author.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The striking film, a warm tribute to the author.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Tim Appelo
His sharp kids offer trenchant insights: When he says Dresden didn't faze him a bit, cut to a daughter saying, "He's full of it."
Filmotomy
Sarah Manvel
The friendship between documentarian and subject pretty clearly got in the way.
Quelle Movies
Raquel Stecher
a comprehensive look at the life and work of a brilliant mind through the eyes of a close friend.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
"Unstuck in Time" does have its revelations and rewards.
NPR
David Bianculli
"Kurt Vonnegut: Unstuck In Time" is faithful to the spirit and subject of Vonnegut the storyteller, but has its own story to tell too.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
This made me want to go back and look at [Kurt Vonnegut's work] again. It's really quite good.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
In the end, any flaws or missed opportunities are subsumed by the movie's sincerity and wealth of insight.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
There's only so much a two-dimensional art form can do to honor a fourth-dimensional artist.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
If you want a handy primer on one of the fabled writers of his time, "Kurt Vonnegut: Unstuck in Time" will more than do.
TheWrap
Simon Abrams
Unfortunately, Weide's considerable documentary footage of Vonnegut doesn't really humanize the author or explain his work in a meaningful way.
The Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
It's an opportunity to bask in Vonnegut's wit and intelligence - to admire the crackerjack delivery of his jokes, savor the offbeat perfection of his prose, drink in the playfulness of his smile.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Rechtshaffen
A gorgeously rendered, unexpectedly moving appraisal of the life and craft of one of the best-loved literary voices of the late 20th century.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Weide and Argott construct his life from an extensive archive of home movies, photographs, and assorted recordings, but also from those close to him, most especially his family.
Slant Magazine
Chris Barsanti
...back the veil on Vonnegut to show how a gloomy dissatisfaction brooded underneath his quippy surface personality.
