Movie Reviews

Village Voice - 6/10 by Marsha McCreadieIf I Were You is a screwball comedy for Canadians—not LOL funny, but as crazy as you might expect Toronto to get.
Film Journal International - 5/10 by David NohAn anti-rom-com in the best sense, Joan Carr-Wiggin's film joyously revives the screwball tradition with real wit, as well as making one fabulously tart female buddy movie.
New York Post - 5/10 by Lou LumenickIf I Were You has more than its share of laughs, but director Joan Carr-Wiggin needed to cut half an hour to make this fly without interest flagging. She had the exact same problem with her last movie, “A Previous Engagement.’’
Slant Magazine - 5/10 by Nick SchagerA wannabe French-style infidelity farce that keeps indulging in unnecessary bathos and subplots.
Time Out - 4/10 by Andrew SchenkerIt’s a complex geometry that’s mined for some interesting perspectives on romantic fulfillment, but the film’s comic sense (exemplified by a drunken Harden acting inappropriately) is slack and its dramatic conclusion unfulfilling.
Cinema em Cena - 4/10 by Pablo VillaçaAcaba levando o espectador a desejar trocar de corpo com alguém que, preferencialmente, esteja bem longe da sala de projeção.
The Hollywood Reporter - 3/10 by Frank ScheckA modern cinematic equivalent of the sort of tired sex farces that used to populate Broadway with regularity, If I Were You simultaneously exploits and squanders the talents of its star, Marcia Gay Harden.
Observer - 3/10 by Rex ReedMostly it just redefines the word “asinine.” Marcia Gay Harden never makes a wrong move, but this movie is so futile, one goes away convinced that the moves she makes are hardly worth making.
Los Angeles Times - 2/10 by Robert AbeleThis is Nancy Meyers territory, but leaden with passé observations about lovelorn women...and hardly ebullient as either oddball-pair comedy or housewife-revenge fantasy.
New York Daily News - 2/10 by Joe NeumaierHardworking Oscar winner Harden and beguiling Spanish star Watling do nothing for this haphazard film, which belatedly decides it wants to be a stage satire as the women lark into a ridiculous avant-garde production of “MacBeth.” Bloody awful.
