The Puffy Chair Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
Built on beats of deadpan timing and splendidly understated reaction shots.
Chicago Tribune
Jessica Reaves
An enjoyable road movie that feels both comfortable and completely fresh.
Metromix.com
Matt Pais
An aching, understated treasure that vividly captures two people who just aren't clicking anymore. The movie is so small you could fit it in your pocket, and so real it hurts.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
... despite plenty of bumps, this road comedy gets to its destination just fine.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
Puffy Chair has real-sounding dialogue and a shaggy quality that works in its favor because it makes the outcome unexpected.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Bill White
The fleeting emotions of domestic conflict are captured more succinctly than any film since John Cassavettes' A Woman Under the Influence.
Arizona Daily Star
Phil Villarreal
Remember the Duplass brothers, writer Mark and director Jay. They seem to be imbued with the talents of the top moviemaking brother acts: the zaniness of the Coens, the insight of the Wachowskis and the comedic spark of the Farrellys.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
The Duplass brothers have stuffed their first feature with fine details. Not all of them are comfy. But they're well-crafted and hint at funny, ouchy films to come.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
The Puffy Chair is a low-key road movie that, fittingly enough, has knocked around the festival circuit for a while and opened in a few theaters before arriving in New York today. The journey it depicts is similarly unhurried.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Combines a wise script with funky performances, especially by Aselton, who could give Jennifer Aniston a run for her money.
Village Voice
Melissa Levine
It may not seem like much, but The Puffy Chair works.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
The film never quite strikes a comfortable or graceful balance between silliness and solemnity.
Chicago Reader
Reece Pendleton
The movie may not amount to much, but the genial tone and exceptionally good performances from the three leads make for a winning debut by the Duplass brothers.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
What feels like meandering in the moment builds to a genuine emotional attachment to the characters.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
A near-perfect relationship-trauma comedy. It's ragged in all the right ways, just like the way we love and wake up to the realization that that love has gone sour.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The characters here exist in a real, real world, very authentic and realistic.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The sly ultra-low-budget film The Puffy Chair fits right in with recent news reports about college graduates refusing to grow up already.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
A charming, if limited, romantic comedy that examines post-collegiate angst with easy, unself-conscious humor.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
For the Duplass brothers and Aselton, The Puffy Chair looks like the beginning of fine careers.
Variety
Scott Foundas
[A] smart and painfully funny debut feature by filmmaker brothers Jay and Mark Duplass.
