Leave your thoughts about Laura Smiles.
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohThe film unfortunately ends as just another misguided indie, artily straining for substance. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoRuscio's script is grim and darkly funny, but the big attraction is Wright's right-on performance. She's an actress waiting to be discovered. |
| L.A. WeeklyScott FoundasIt casts an increasingly hypnotic spell, thanks in no small measure to Wright -- a fearless actress (and the real-life wife of writer-director Ruscio) who brings this sometimes despicable, often heartbreaking character to life with every atom of her being. |
| Time OutJoshua LandThe movie's muddy, overexposed look is tough on the eyes, but its unrelentingly bleak take on the land of supermarkets and car dealerships is not without its share of dark humor, and it thankfully eschews easy answers. |
| New York TimesMatt Zoller SeitzPart domestic drama, part thriller, the microbudget shot-on-video feature Laura Smiles is so ambitious that its ultimate failure is more depressing than anything in its dark script. |
| New York Daily NewsJami BernardIt's an interesting profile in self-destruction until the script becomes unhinged itself and has Laura doing things that are not so much outrageous as hilariously stupid. |
| New York ObserverAndrew SarrisMs. Wright and all her acting colleagues provide very persuasive performances amid the shifting perspectives of Mr. Ruscio's convoluted storytelling. |
| Slant MagazinePaul SchrodtLaura Smiles teaches us that you can't escape misery, least of all in Jersey. |
| User ReviewGrey ROne of the most powerful films I have ever seen in my life. |
| User Reviewkat kthis film destroys me. there are no words. |
