Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Melissa MaerzAniston works so hard to avoid sentimentality that it's disappointing when it creeps into the film. Director Daniel Barnz casts everything in a blue-yellow light that oversells the melancholy mood.
AV Club - 9/10 by Jenni MillerDirector Daniel Barnz, who also made the unbearably earnest "Won’t Back Down," never wavers in his more-is-more conviction. Perhaps with a better script and in surer hands, Cake could have been salvaged.
New Yorker - 9/10 by Richard BrodyThe slack and purposeless direction leaves the entire cast emoting in a void.
Beliefnet - 9/10 by Nell Minowa brave, vulnerable, nuanced, grimly humorous and deeply felt performance
National Post - 8/10 by Chris KnightIt's no wonder that Aniston signed on to produce and star. The part is an actor's dream, and she had the aspiration and the guts to fully realize it.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 8/10 by Kristin TillotsonFive words I never thought I'd string together: Jennifer Aniston made me cry.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleWhat makes Aniston, of all actresses, especially right for Cake is that her comedy has always had a certain ruefulness underlying it, an understanding of life’s limits, a kind of glum acceptance. So the transition into sadness and desolation is a natural step for her.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by William GossAt the end of the day, Cake at least stands better as a showcase for the potential dramatic chops of the once and future Rachel Green than it does as the latest life-affirming indie. Hopefully, the next time Aniston goes fishing for awards, she uses a more convincing breed of bait to do so.
L.A. Weekly - 8/10 by Amy NicholsonAniston gives the character personality and heft, but the script gives the character nothing to do.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeIs Cake a great picture? Oh, good heavens, no. This is a small, unassuming movie that does contain an impressive performance from Aniston -- even without the nomination.
