Volver Reviews
I.E. Weekly
Amy Nicholson
It's up to charm to twinkle our attention away from the loose threads and daytime TV plotting.
Denver Rocky Mountain News
Matt Weitz
Volver qualifies as a must-see movie for the director's fans or for those who wish to admire one of the greatest living cinema artists.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
If Almodovar is in great form, Cruz is even shapelier, with no small number of gags involving her cleavage.
Orlando Sentinel
Roger Moore
It's clever and entertaining. It's marvelously deft, but never daffy. It works well enough, despite feeling like the most conventional film this great, envelope-pushing Spanish director has ever made.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Pedro Almodóvar whipstitches a movie from patches of those mother-daughter melodramas Mildred Pierce, Bellissima and Two Women and makes it seamless and original, funny as it is fierce, breathtaking as it is life-affirming.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Volver is rich, crazy, ambitious and filled with heaven and earth in a way that no other filmmaker can touch. It is a flawed beauty, but the beauty is so much more important than the flaws.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
The Return rattles its chains for a spell, but it doesn't linger -- it quickly leaves.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Ripe with female characters and embroidered with flourishes that hint at Hollywood's Golden Age, Volver is one of Almodóvar's finest films. It is also one of his most emotionally delightful.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar always has fun toying with our perceptions and expectations and does it yet again with Volver, a darkly comic look at mortality and family secrets.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
A movie with more in its heart than on its mind, Pedro Almodóvar's Volver doesn't approach the brilliance of his recent films Talk to Her and Bad Education.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
The result is intoxicating; a free-spinning story that's by its end enormously satisfying, creating its own kind of magic.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
The women are left to do the best they can. That turns out to be enough to keep you watching through to the final twist -- as unlikely as everything else in this nonetheless extremely likable movie.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The film is realistic, yet Almodóvar's touch of the absurd and the madcap infiltrate everything that occurs while his candy-colored visual palette lends a brightness to what in other hands might have taken the form of a sordid tale.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Beautiful performances, a refreshing story, and spot-on comedic timing make this a wonderful movie.
Bitch Media
Alyx Vesey
As emotionally devastating as it is visually stunning.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
Volver disappoints.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
[A] gritty melodrama tempered by surreal black humor.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
A deeply entertaining experience that engages our hearts as well as our funny bones.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What a distinctive filmmaker Almodovar has become.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
One of the amazing things about Volver is that Almodóvar once again manages to make a preposterous, overloaded plot seem sublime and organic.
