Landline Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
A lovely success.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Landline is a very funny film about people dealing with very serious situations. Better the Jacobs family than us.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
"Landline" is a very nice movie about the ways people can be not nice to each other at all, and it never quite overcomes its innate passive aggressiveness.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Slate isn't the star of "Landline," but her daffy, unpredictable presence keeps it fizzing while her co-stars, especially Quinn, deliver brave, nervy performances.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Slate, a beguiling comic actress with shrewd dramatic instincts, knows how to make even faulty or contrived sequences come off.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The characters and the actors playing them are appealing, and somehow the movie all adds up to a better than break-even proposition.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
Landline is warm and observant, gently funny and moving. And sometimes, as the film argues, cozy and familiar is exactly what you need.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Landline gets what makes people tick, doesn't shy from reveling in the good, bad and ugly as well as all the gradations hiding in the various grey areas.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
There's seldom a dull moment when this funny and bright woman is onscreen. In a nod to another Nineties memory, there's something about Jenny.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
"Landline," at times, feels a bit inert, that it's coasting on the novelty of '90s nostalgia without justifying that choice, and allowing those references to stand in for actual propulsive storytelling and jokes.
The Atlantic
David Sims
Landline ultimately succumbs to a trope it eagerly tries to avoid-it ties things up with a bow.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Like [Obvious Child], this one benefits from Slate's ample charm and comic timing, though they've been funneled into a more conventional coming-of-age story.
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
Witty, warm, and funny, Landline is a charming comedy, edged just a bit by its heartbreaks.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
The actors fling themselves with forced charm into their narrowly defined roles, and Robespierre juggles the story lines with a bland vigor that lacks any observational, analytical, or symbolic dimension.
Newsweek
Zach Schonfeld
Landline doesn't exploit the retro setting for gimmicky punchlines. Amidst the turmoil of 2017, 1995 feels like a comfortable and quaint world to step back into.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Emily Yoshida
I've argued before that Slate should be the queen of modern-day rom-coms, if such a position was open. Add Landline to the evidence pile.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
For all the profanity and naughty behavior, it has the timid, ingratiating vibe of a television sitcom, sticking to safe and familiar emotional territory.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
A forlornly funny and emotionally bruising dramedy that rarely misses an opportunity to reveal humans as the flawed and occasionally awful beings that they are.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Landline is at times endearing, funny, and crushing, but it is instantly forgettable.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
In sweetly calibrated moments ... Landline finds the analog joy it's reaching for.
