Leave your thoughts about Drowning Mona.
| USA TodaySusan WloszczynaExcuse me, but didn't Bette Midler already play this role? |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrExecuted on a pretty broad level, but if characterization is slighted, the ensemble is so rich, with such depth, that every few minutes another juicy turn keeps coming our way to divert us. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonManages to keep up a full head of steam despite repeating the same essential jokes over and over again. |
| Film.comGemma FilesAn endlessly contrived exercise in self-referential "black comedy", can't help but strike me as no kind of triumph of anything over anything. |
| Movie MomNell MinowThere are a couple of funny lines, and the cast is game, but it just doesn't work. |
| Baltimore SunAnn HornadayWith a hilarious script and capable cast, the film puts a clever spin on the everyone-is-a-suspect plot. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerPaula NechakScores high on nastiness, but it has as many surprisingly funny moments as offensive ones. |

| Orlando WeeklyBrad HaynesBig budget or not, Drowning Mona was clearly meant to sink rather than swim. |
| VarietyTodd McCarthy[Gomez] extracts potent comedy from the material's more outrageous situations and displays a sure hand with his talented cast. |
