| Associated PressBob ThomasClayburgh has become the leading portrayer of the troubled modern woman, and once more she is totally persuasive. The trouble lies in the David Rabe script |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher Nullthere's more than a little barely veiled hero worship here |
| DVDTalk.comScott WeinbergI'm Dancing as Fast as I Can hasn't exactly aged all that well. And that's me being kind. |
| User ReviewBrian WProducer Barbara Gordon's horrifying experience with Valium withdrawal. |
| User ReviewWilliam PGood performance by Clayburgh makes this a decent movie. |
| User ReviewMiguel CThe acting from Clayburgh and Page is top-flight, as ever, however, Nicol Williamson comes across as stilted and hammy. The plot, concerning Barbara Gordon's [not Batgirl, mind you] real-life plight on getting hooked on valium and then beating her addiction is scary and brutal, however here it is treated banally andthe results are mind-boggingly soapy and over-the-top... however, as a chance to see Clayburgh in her prime, this is as good as it gets, even though "An Unmarried Woman" is much, much better. |
