Leave your thoughts about An American Rhapsody.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertNastassja Kinski, in one of her most affecting performances, does much to convey the turmoil going in her soul. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrThe heartfelt truthfulness of Gardos' tale, and the performances of all leads, particularly Johansson, make the film a powerful account of the universal search for identity and the meaning of "home." |
| Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovHas an unerring eye for the banal intricacies of 1950s pre-planned suburban neighborhoods, à la Levittown. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranMade with care and respect, American Rhapsody manages to skirt the edge of excessive sentiment without falling victim to it. |
| Mr. ShowbizKevin MaynardThe result is a heartfelt film brimming with ideas and passion but hampered by a literal approach that douses the emotional heat. |
| The New York TimesDave KehrMs. Gardos is not a particularly flavorful filmmaker, but she is an honest one. |
| New Times (L.A.)Gregory WeinkaufDistinguishes itself by its subtlety and good taste. Even if we catch a hint of gypsy music on the soundtrack -- or glimpse a disturbing American neighbor lady -- Gardos steadfastly guards us from caricature. She wants to keep it real. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleThey don't get more frustrating than American Rhapsody, a near-great film for about an hour that changes into a self-indulgent mess. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumGardos -- treats it competently, though without much freshness or imagination. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanHeartfelt but often plodding and awkward, the movie feels like a somewhat subpar Sunday night TV movie. |
