You Can Count on Me Ratings & Reviews
Detroit News
Susan Stark
The key to Lonergan's success? He has faith in the intelligence of his audience. It's that simple -- and encouraging.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Beautiful, compassionate, articulate.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Some of its best moments are so painfully familiar that their overall theatricality is easily forgiven.
San Francisco Chronicle
Carla Meyer
It's simply a quiet and heartbreaking look at the dynamics of one family. That's the beauty of it.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The characters in You Can Count on Me have been freed from the formulas of fiction and set loose to live lives where they screw up, learn from their mistakes and bumble hopefully into the future.
Film Comment Magazine
Gavin Smith
Unusually sharp editing is the first hint that in fact it's a superior, acutely observed comedy-drama about family ties and the struggle to find a sense of purpose, even managing to work in some genuinely metaphysical intimations.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Few films have explored the complicated bonds of love and resentment between brother and sister with such delightful honesty.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
I never thought I would say this, but I am starting to think that Laura Linney may, in fact, be a very good actress.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
This funny and involving film presents its well-drawn characters to us pretty much the way we would encounter them in life.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Steve Murray
A little movie concealing surprisingly big emotions.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
With warm humor and perceptive writing, director Kenneth Lonergan displays a gift for creating realistic characters and a compelling story.
Film.com
Peter Brunette
Thoroughly modest in its means and ambition, You Can Count on Me is one of the best pictures I've seen all year.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Offers as rich and satisfying an emotional experience as any film this year.
Newsday
John Anderson
Gives us not so much a slice of reality as a big picture window, polished and gleaming, through which we can see things that matter.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
A subtle and often surprising study of the relationship between damaged adult siblings, full of mordant humor and dramatic invention.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Lonergan shows us what our movies rarely do: real people suffering real pains and joys -- in the small, cluttered ways that real life mostly brings.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
Lonergan serves his superb screenplay well.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Gem of a movie.
