| Reel.comRod Armstrong[Miller] knows that good suspense films don't always need to keep viewers on the edges of their seats; sometimes they can just be concerned with what interesting characters will do next. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldMiller tells this very compelling tale with little fuss or noise, expertly plucking tension from quiet. |
| San Diego Union-TribuneDavid ElliottMiller is playing so free with emotions, and the fact that children are hostages to fortune, that he makes the audience hostage to his swaggering affectation of seriousness. |
| RTÉ (Ireland)Harry GuerinAn ingenious and often harrowing look at damaged people and how families can offer either despair or consolation. |
| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. MeansLike a Tarantino movie with heart, Alias Betty is richly detailed, deftly executed and utterly absorbing. |
| New York Magazine/VulturePeter RainerIt's a solid movie about people whose lives are anything but. |
| New York ObserverAndrew SarrisMs. Khiberlain, Ms. Garcia and Ms. Seigner brilliantly play the three mothers like a dissonant string trio on a single theme: the varied agonies of motherhood. |
| Toronto StarGeoff PevereWhile laterally propelled films like this are often exercises in structural cleverness, Miller's movie makes organic use of its incidental associations. |
| Jam! MoviesDerek TseA small gem of a movie that defies classification and is as thought-provoking as it is funny, scary and sad. |
| L.A. WeeklyChuck WilsonKiberlain's and Garcia's performances ... trace, with brilliant precision, the exhausting mix of brutality and grace inherent in the mother-daughter relationship. |
