The Meddler Reviews
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Sarandon sparkles in this lightweight comedy-drama.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Much like its main character, "The Meddler" exudes an irresistible charm.
Miami Herald
Connie Ogle
The beauty of The Meddler is in its insistence that grief passes - even if you can't buy your way to happiness.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
You root for Marnie, even when it's clear why Lori struggles with her, and you hear her persistent voice in your head for a while afterward - reminding you, perhaps, to give your own mother a call.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
What seems cringe-worthy at first in The Meddler winds up as a warm, forgiving embrace -- of the movie's characters and audience, as well.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
"The Meddler" is a disappointment after the talent Scafaria demonstrated in her 2012 feature debut "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World."
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Taken as a whole, Sarandon's performance is something to behold.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
It's funny and warm and gives us Sarandon's great performance.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
Roles like this are regrettably rare for actresses of a certain age, and Sarandon makes the very best of this opportunity.
Chesapeake Family Magazine
Roxana Hadadi
The Meddler feels more like a sitcom than a feature film, with a mix of drama and comedy that wraps up neatly. But with tidiness comes charm and poignancy.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Writer/director Lorene Scafaria has a rare gift for finding the space in between joy and grief, and a rare understanding of the power of small moments to tell a big story.
New Yorker
Richard Brody
Scafaria's sympathetic intentions fall to simplistic setups and easy resolutions. She offers the characters no significant traits beside their functions in the action; the movie coasts on the charm of the actors, whom the director coaxes to mug ...
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
With Sarandon in the title role, Scafaria has a winner: The actress tackles Marnie headlong, with heart and soul, trolling the fancy outdoor shopping mall for products to buy and for people to intercept and hang on to.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
We've seen these types of characters before, but not played by these particular and highly skilled actresses.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The movie feels authentic, not like it's following a screenplay going through the motions, but rather like we're following someone real go through life.
BuzzFeed News
Alison Willmore
The Meddler is a mash note to compulsive nurturers -- to, in particular, women who've devoted their lives to figuring out what other people need.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
In many respects this plays like a senior-citizen romance with Diane Keaton, but it goes down much more easily, thanks to the players' sincerity and the credible, unassuming dialogue.
Observer
Rex Reed
Charming, insightful and funny.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
The supporting cast is first-rate, and it's great to see Susan Sarandon in a leading role that makes such good use of her talent.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
The movie is called "The Meddler," but that doesn't do justice to Marnie. It could just have easily been called "The Benefactor" or "The Nurturer" or "A Really Nice Lady Named Marnie."
