Leave your thoughts about A Slipping Down Life.
| Newark Star-LedgerStephen WhittyThe movie's fairly standard plotting comes as a disappointment, because the story -- drawn from an Anne Tyler novel -- has a dark sense of humor and plenty of Southern Gothic charm. |
| Milwaukee Journal SentinelKevin John BozelkaThe film does little more than clock the highs and lows of another of cinema's many, many, many couples. |
| Village VoiceLaura SinagraWhile the camera unsuccessfully courts Southern gothic humor, caressing a hodgepodge of retro-fetish knickknacks, the actors' knowing glances seem to look beyond the confines not only of the town, but of the film itself. |
| FilmStew.comLarry CarrollGoes down a well-traveled road that leaves Drumstrings neutered and Evie with a forehead that, like her character, heals all too cleanly. |
| Denver PostLisa KennedyIt's too common to complain that a book is better than the movie. But in A Slipping-Down Life, the score trumps what's on screen as well. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekA frail independent feature with an impressive cast but not much energy and equally little point. |
| Zap2it.comVanessa SibbaldThe real joy of the film is watching Taylor and Pearce play off each other, creating their characters' unique relationship... |
| PopMattersCynthia FuchsThe movie's gradual devolution into a series of events sends the characters slipping and sliding into and apart from one another. |
| New York Daily NewsJack MathewsI have not read the Anne Tyler novella from which the movie is adapted, but it is clear from the earliest scenes that Evie and Drumstrings are of a different generation from 37-year-old Taylor and 36-year-old Pearce. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin CrustThe casting of Taylor gives the film a powerful center, a bright light that keeps it on course. |
