The Intervention Ratings & Reviews
Autostraddle
Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
The Intervention doesn't play around with its familiar format enough to get too excited about it.
Shockya.com
Harvey S. Karten
Follows the pattern of "The Return of the Secaucus Seven."
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Kathy Fennessy
Considering that DuVall shot the film on a small budget over a short amount of time, it's a deft piece of work, and proves she has what it takes to make a go of a directing career.
Film Inquiry
Jacqui Blue
You may have to be at just the right stage in your life to appreciate it - but for those of us who are there, The Intervention is a great film.
Stream on Demand
Sean Axmaker
It's the directorial debut of Clea Duvall and it's very much an actors' showcase: eight characters with heavy baggage doing their best to ignore the weight.
Bust Magazine
Erika W. Smith
Clea DuVall's directorial debut, The Intervention, brings together so many of our favorite actors for a break-up-and-make-up dramedy.
New York Times
Andy Webster
Despite her script's omissions - we learn little about where these affluent people come from, their occupations or how they know one another - Ms. DuVall juggles the emotional dynamics with fluid editing and light comic touches.
Entertainment Weekly
Kevin P. Sullivan
The script wobbles between heavy-handed and touching, but the result is a pleasantly nostalgic throwback that's saved from its copy-cat tendencies by charismatic actors.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
If DuVall's purpose was to provide a snapshot of her generation, she should have sharpened her focus.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
As an unfussy, dryly amusing and sincere look at men and women pondering emotional pivots in their lives, it's plenty likable.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
Wanders from scene to scene until arriving at some pretty implausible conflict resolution.
TheWrap
Sam Adams
It's more engrossing to just hang out with the characters in all their damaged glory, before the plot marches through the room with its clunkiest boots on.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"The Intervention" feels confident and accomplished: The cast immediately seems to bond as a group, with each playing a distinctive, recognizable character.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
The movie's stifling familiarity prevents it from making much of an impact.
New York Daily News
Amy Rowe
Duvall certainly didn't let a small budget intervene with her plan to tell a compelling story, one that's relatable to anyone who has had relationship problems.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
Clea DuVall crafts an entire film out of aborted attempts at a revelation that feel completely anodyne.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
The wit is sly, the laughs rooted in character and behavior rather than easy punch lines.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
To say this script lacks dramatic energy is an understatement - you might as well try to power your car on celery juice.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
An ensemble piece that breaks no new ground in themes or execution, but is pleasingly accomplished on all levels.
The Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
A cloying throwback to the Big Chill format of a cloistered reunion devoted to self-analysis and errant hanky-panky that in this case features mostly silly and annoying characters with whom it's no fun to be trapped.
