Papa Hemingway in Cuba Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Miriam Di Nunzio
A film that is beautiful to look at but lacks clear vision.
HeraldNet (Everett, WA)
Robert Horton
Sparks conveys the author's sometimes overlooked sensitivity, and the actual Cuban locations add flavor, but the film is pretty flat.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[T]he entire production is embarrassingly amateurish.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
In the end, it's a museum piece: even the drunken screaming matches between Hemingway and his wife feel staged.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
As the first U.S. film shot in Cuba since Castro came to power in 1959, Papa gives us sights to revel in. Oddly, what hurts is the clunky, overripe script.
The Newnan Times-Herald
Jonathan W. Hickman
Sincerely written and well acted "Papa Hemingway in Cuba" is a micro-budgeted film that will play well for students of the famous author.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Fagerholm
"Papa" is merely cinema at its dullest, a perfunctory assemblage of biographical bullet points in which characters explain their lives rather than live them.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Richardson deserves better. Hemingway certainly deserves better. And so does the audience.
New York Times
Helen T. Verongos
Ms. Richardson comforts and coaxes and exasperatedly, bitingly demeans, but she and Mr. Sparks play past each other instead of engaging.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Petitclerc's screenplay dramatizes his relationship with Hemingway from his own not-very-interesting point-of-view.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Sluggishly directed by producer Bob Yari ("Crash''), it's based on an autobiographical script by Denne Bart Petitclerc, who died in 2006.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
An unintentionally hilarious example of biopic gone wrong.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
For those with an interest in Ernest Hemingway, Papa Hemingway in Cuba is a remarkable treat.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Hemingway was the master of less is more. Papa: Hemingway in Cuba - more is less.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
The director should have listened to the advice Hemingway himself gives the kid: "It's the power of less."
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
The story of the great writer and man's man in decline could have been fascinating, but director Bob Yari's film is not.
AV Club
Adam Nayman
It's the sort of film that's destined to be the answer to a trivia question, and not much more.
Variety
Joe Leydon
"Papa" never transcends the tropes of a formulaic biopic that views its famous subject through the eyes of a worshipful young devotee.
San Jose Mercury News
Karen D'Souza
Yari's earnest but plodding biopic lacks a sense of sweep and truth, trading tropical landscapes for narrative depth in a way that diminishes the power of the Hemingway mystique.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
The script is based on screenwriter Denne Bart Petitclerc's actual experience befriending the author, but words that might have lived in real life here die on the screen.
