Permanent Midnight Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The trouble is that it's hard to care!
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The movie gets credit for not making the high life seem colorful or funny.
Mr. Showbiz
Kevin Maynard
Wicked sense of humor!
Film.com
Robert Horton
Rollicking! A high-energy adaptation!
New York Times
Janet Maslin
As enveloping as it is darkly cautionary!
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Unsettling and-yes-often scorchingly funny!
Variety
Glenn Lovell
Stiller's attempted image makeover, though admirable, doesn't make it.
San Diego Union-Tribune
David Elliott
Grossly comical!
TheFilmFile.com
Dustin Putman
Constant sequences of drug taking, one after the other, does not a good film make.

David N. Butterworth
Ben Stiller proves his acting chops in this atypical role as a heroin-addicted television writer.
Citysearch
Sandra Ramani
Disjointed, uneven, unfocused, and hazy!
NUVO Newsweekly
Edward Johnson-Ott
Permanent Midnight offers nothing we haven't seen before.
Film Journal International
Rod Granger
This well-told and solidly acted story of his rise and fall is not a pretty sight, but, as with a car wreck, it is riveting nevertheless. It is almost impossible to look away.
Nitrate Online
Elias Savada
It's horrifying (and R-rated) if not utterly relentless; it sucks your breath away, perhaps too much.
Boxoffice Magazine
Maitland McDonagh
Witty!
