Leave your thoughts about Heavy.
| New York TimesJanet MaslinEven the film's chanciest moments sustain an overall poignancy. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertYou don't guess the true horror of the place, which is that there are no secrets, because everyone here knows all about everyone else, inside and out, top to bottom, and has for years. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasIn his feature debut, writer-director John Mangold brings remarkably sensitive powers of observation to bear upon ordinary people living ordinary lives. |
| Sacramento BeeJoe BaltakeAs she does in Stealing Beauty, Tyler somehow makes it all believable. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksA deliberately paced exploration of loneliness, Heavy is a lovely and sad minimalist, slice-of-life drama. |
| Jam! MoviesBruce KirklandAs the melodrama plays out, Mangold creates a heightened sensibility, the feeling of emotional exploration, the hope for understanding. Yet he doesn't really do much with it. |
| Boxoffice MagazineShlomo SchwartzbergEffectively delineates those people whose lives merely exist on the margins of society. |
| WaffleMovies.comWillie WafflePruitt Taylor Vince will amaze you with his subtle but powerful portrayal of the lovable Victor. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyShowing observational skills, James Mangold has made a quiet, personal film that contests the stereotypes with which Hollywood has portrayed overweight people. |
| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesThe movie has a kind of elegance, but it's a very long sit. |
