Snow Cake Ratings & Reviews
Bitch Media
Caroline Narby
Rickman, sadly, can't rise above this dull, offensive mess of a film.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
A heartfelt but utterly predictable indie drama.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
It's essentially a vehicle for a dedicated cast, but occasionally it's more than that.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Weaver makes Linda her own, alternating between off-putting brashness, engaging honesty and bursts of spontaneous, childlike behavior.
Variety
Derek Elley
Lack of dramatic intensity is all the more surprising considering the emotional clout of helmer Marc Evans' two best movies, the chilling Resurrection Man and scarefest My Little Eye.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Overly forced, a shade too whimsical, but filling a void other words and other movies haven't the nerve or errant taste to confront.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This slow-burning character drama never gets as emotionally involving, or persuasive, as the moviemakers intend it to.
Los Angeles Times
Carina Chocano
Modest but well wrought and witty, Snow Cake is full of unexpected moments and clever observations and, despite a sparse quality, makes a good case for the idea that you're never too late, or too far gone, to connect with or understand others.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
People who are different are magical! That's the takeaway lesson from Snow Cake, an awfully tidy, infernally sparkly study in skewed blessings, made manifest by Committed Acting from Sigourney Weaver.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The performances are terrific overall and the writing is pretty good, so just enough to recommend it.
AV Club
Noel Murray
For every three eye-roll-worthy scenes, Snow Cake offers one that's genuinely funny or moving.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Moving but at times overearnest.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
This, apparently, is the kind of stretch our contemporary great actresses have to look forward to as they near 60.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Snow Cake partly camouflages the banality of its concept with its meticulous performances.
Newsday
John Anderson
It is Weaver -- whom director Marc Evans uses for maximum shmaltz -- who is the shiny object dangled before our eyes. And she is certainly something to watch.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
Marc Evans' indie drama, from a script by Angels Pell (who has an autistic son), keeps sidling up to the brink of mawkishness, then pulling back so nicely into Weaver's rich, hard-headed evocation of Linda's limitations.
Observer
Rex Reed
Snow Cake suffers from the same faults that plague most Canadian films: It drones itself to death with the pace of a drunken ant, and the ending takes longer than to arrive than Christmas morning.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Like I Am Sam, it is easy to laugh at Marc Evans's Snow Cake because sincerity appears to have had nothing to do with its creation.
eye WEEKLY
Adam Nayman
Marc Evans' direction is alternately clear-eyed and blearily sentimental, but the film is a fine showcase for Weaver.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
The key dramatic moments feel as forced as they are predictable.
