Taylor Mendon is a Hollywood scriptwriter on a minor rebound from drugs and booze. He's writing for a mirthless sit-com and betting on the horses behind his wife's back when her sister calls needing help: Taylor's 20-year-old niece Amanda has become a hooker in Las Vegas. He promises to find her, bring her back, and pay for her stay at an expensive rehab center. Once in Nevada, Taylor starts gambling in earnest using money loaned him by the casino. He also finds Amanda, a cheerful prostitute, uninterested in reform. Can Taylor win back his borrowings, keep his wife from discovering his habit, and help Amanda find redemption? Or is life different from a sit-com?
Leave your thoughts about Finding Amanda.
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghThis dark comedy of addiction, delusion and humor as a weapon marks the feature directing debut of veteran writer Peter Tolan. |
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesOffers a steady supply of clever lines but suffers from the patina of self-loathing common to industry lifers and the unfortunate miscasting of straight-arrow Broderick as a depressed, cynical hack. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.A breakthrough for Brittany Snow who shows she can do much more than horrible remakes and teen comedies... |
| The New York TimesStephen HoldenIf the title "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" didn’' already belong to Hunter S. Thompson, it would perfectly fit Peter Tolan's viciously funny satire, Finding Amanda. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsThis debut picture never makes up its mind about what sort of comedy it wants to be. But at least it has one--a mind, that is. |
| Film Journal InternationalDoris ToumarkineFalse, forced, familiar and often vulgar, especially in its language and depiction of certain characters. |
| Village VoiceElla TaylorBy keeping the tone light, the players human (Steve Coogan has a nice turn as a greasy casino host), and never, ever romanticizing the addict, Finding Amanda comes by its heartbreak honestly. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigBroderick has the film's most clever lines, but Snow is quite funny and is convincing as an innocent lured by the promise of easy money. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertBroderick is splendid as the gambler. He knows, as many addicts do, that the addictive personality is very inward, however much acting out might take place. |
| AV ClubNathan RabinIt's amusing but facile, reasonably clever but hopelessly glib. |
