The Details Ratings & Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"The Details" is not just entertaining, but potentially useful.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
As the title suggests, it's all in the details, which writer-director Estes provides in large if not always convincing doses.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
There are a few highlights worth a look and an accomplished supporting cast to ease the oddity along, yet The Details doesn't add up to much despite its rather elaborate design of misery.
Film Journal International
David Noh
It's a Weinstein release, but I don't foresee any big Oscar push for this wacky misfire.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
The longer it went on, the more eager I was for it to be over.
Boston Herald
James Verniere
A very well cast, R-rated TV sitcom.
Detroit News
Tom Long
It's hard to make a fine actress like Laura Linney look off-key and shrill, but "The Details" manages to do just that. It's hardly an accomplishment.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
"The Details" cancels itself out by being too campy to take seriously and too tragic to laugh at.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"The Details" wears its quirky heart on its sleeve, signaling (and smirking at) its own silliness, at every opportunity, with an intrusively antic score that makes everything sound like a giant joke.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
It all adds up to create a dicey morality tale that's as improbable as it is strangely believable.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Instead of turning soft and squishy, this examination of karma gets tougher as it goes along. Its refusal to settle into a cozy niche may be commercially disastrous, but I take it as a sign of integrity.
NPR
Joel Arnold
In exploring how easily and strangely the life Jeff and Nealy have built together unravels, The Details lays out a series of mundane and dangerous objects as signposts - provocative keys to the film's darkly comedic and tense puzzle.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
The movie is many things, but a mess isn't one of them. Estes knows exactly what he wants. Whether it's worth wanting is another matter.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
[A] provocatively acrid adult comedy of lies, deceits, and a touch of murder.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
As if to justify its own title, The Details is familiar in its plotting but uproarious in its incidents.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
It's more interested in admiring its own architecture than building something worth residing in.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
It's a frustrating movie in its inconsistency.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
The perpetrators and victims here are all such smug, dull caricatures that none of the intended satirical barbs have anywhere to land.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
It's a familiar mold: the perils of suburban discontent have been so thoroughly explored that "The Details" plays like a hodgepodge of familiar circumstances on an assembly line to disaster.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
The Details is as smug and self-satisfied as its privileged lead character.
