Sweet Liberty Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The movie wants to juggle a lot of characters all at once, but it keeps dropping the most interesting ones.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
"featherweight farce, performed agreeably"
KFOR Channel 4 News (Oklahoma City)
Blake Davis
A sweet, funny comedy about the perils of being a writer and making a movie. An underrated charmer.
Video-Reviewmaster.com
Steve Crum
OK light comedy, directed by and starring Alan Alda, about filming of movie in small town.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
If you want a ruthless picture about moviemaking, go with Sunset Boulevard, S.O.B. or The Player. But if you want a toothless picture about moviemaking, then Sweet Liberty should hit the sweet spot.
Detroit Free Press
Catherine Rambeau
Mature audiences looking for decent mainstream entertainment should have a good time watching the consequences of this classic Hollywood standoff.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an erratically-paced comedy that grows less and less interesting as it progresses...
The Spool
B.L. Panther
While the film suffers from a shoehorned relationship plot that tries to mirror the historical "romance" at the center of his book being filmed, the film excels when Michael confronts the film crew.
