The Trouble with Jessica Ratings & Reviews
FilmWeek (LAist)
Christy Lemire
I was into all of the twists and didn't necessarily know where it was going.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
The best thing about it, purely from an actorly point of view, is Shirley Henderson's performance.
MovieJawn
Tim Stevens
It has all the makings of a claustrophobic, unnerving, and darkly funny film. You spend the movie waiting for it to become that but it never does.
Collider
Aidan Kelley
This misguided take on a dark comedy ultimately lacks laughs, thrills, and overall reverence for severe topics.
The Michael Medved Show
Michael Medved
Elegant and stylish ...Indira Varma makes a deep impression as the clearly troubled Jessica, even though for most of this film's very brisk running time, she's not actually alive.
Film Obsessive
Don Shanahan
Like any sure-handed cinematic riddle, Matt Winn keeps pushing the teeter-totter at the right times, dropping question marks all the way until the end.
North Shore Movies
Daniel M. Kimmel
"The Trouble With Jessica" is less about the dead body than about the problems of the other characters, and how far they're willing to go to get out of an increasingly messy situation.
Killer Movie Reviews
Andrea Chase
Literate and deadpan, this wildly funny black comedy of ethics is a monumental adrenalin rush that will make you squirm and crave a clafouti.
Common Sense Media
Kat Halstead
This talky but clever drama is saturated with dark comedy and a claustrophobic, stage-bound feel that will appeal to theater fans.
Spectrum Culture
Alan Zilberman
The best black comedies require the courage of their conviction, a need to push the premises to their logical conclusion. Absent any such logic, The Trouble with Jessica finds a conclusion that is worse than illogical. It is safe.
MovieWeb
Julian Roman
The Trouble with Jessica is a bitingly satirical, well-acted black comedy that runs out of steam after milking its clever premise dry. Director/co-writer Matt Winn packs a wallop in the film's taut and meticulously executed first act.
Showbiz Junkies
Rebecca Murray
Sharply written and briskly paced, The Trouble with Jessica is a hilarious dive into the limits of friendship, the flexible nature of morals, and the healing power of a particularly delicious dessert.
We Are Movie Geeks
Cate Marquis
The British dark comedy THE TROUBLE WITH JESSICA has trouble for all, in a satirical tale where a dinner party between old friends goes so very, very wrong. Director Matt Winn's dark tale features a starry British cast, with Rufus Sewell, Shirley Hende
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
There are some scattered big laughs, although the talky script can't separate its edgiest jokes from their intended targets.
Paste Magazine
Jim Vorel
Writer-director Matt Winn's tragicomedy farce revolves around the consequences of an ill-timed death, but he's so busy intermingling with his reprehensible characters that the film never spares much interest or empathy for the woman in its title.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
The script, by James Handel and director Matt Winn, is tightly constructed.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
This is why the black comedy proves so successful. These are all reprehensible people in the vein that we are all reprehensible people. [They] know the difference between right and wrong, but none are above moving that line when it suits them.
Film Festival Today
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
The manic activities of the ensemble notwithstanding, the collective effect proves rather inert. There's just not quite as much trouble as promised.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[I]t doesn't lack the heart to be as cruel as finding any real humor in this situation requires.
New York Times
Beatrice Loayza
A critique about the hypocrisies of the righteous upper middle class unfolds halfheartedly, leaving us with performances that might've worked better in a sketch comedy scene.
