Filmcritic.com - 7/10 by Rachel GordonThe end is clear from the start, but it's rather amusing to watch nonetheless, backed by a strong, eclectic cast.

User Review - 10/10 by Rachel SA surprising favorite. I found this hidden gem by accident and now count it as one of my favorites. Sarandon's portray's the love, frustration, worry and insanity of family I so well I cry a bit everytime. Love all those personalities in the boys..all 7 of them.

User Review - 8/10 by Elizabeth NOkay you love Sam Shepard as a writer, but check him out here as an actor, he is fantastic.
User Review - 8/10 by emily h(a rough draft, written for The Watermark, 01/21/95, but not published) In Safe Passage, Susan Sarandon and Sam Shepard are parents who receive the unwelcome news that one of their sons who is a Marine in the Persian Gulf may have died in an unexpected explosion at his Marine base. Their other six sons all return home to await the news from Washington as to whether he is a casualty or a survivor. While the family is back under one roof and facing the possibility of losing one of their own, they all must face their past as a family unit, and their own scattered relationships as individuals. What is so well conveyed in Safe Passage is the fact that it focuses on the trivial - waiting - while always remaining interesting and well structured in its ?everyday? feeling in the dialogue, the situatons, and the camerawork. The laughs in the film occur only where situations call for it, such as Sarandon and Shepard arguing at top volume over whether the church in which they were married was the Chapel of ?Harmony? or ?Bliss.? More impressively is that nothing is heavily contrived, and no conflict is forced to keep the film moving: lesser films would have involved more petty bickering among the brothers and the parents. One sequence, where they all clean out the garage, is marvelous both in its release of nervous energy and in its symbolism of the dumping of the family?s ?baggage? which we see taking place in the film. Another brilliant moment is a shot of their TV screen and the news reporting on the explosion, and the TV is switched off to show the reflection of the entire family in the screen - all together as one unit, focused on one goal. The real craft of such a ?realization? film as this is that it has no lustrous Hollywood quality to it. If it had tried to pass off that all of this family?s problems can be solved within a three-day period, it would have bordered on melodrama. One plot device, where Shepard inexplicably has spells of blindness, is pleasantly surprising in its resolution, and has a nice humility about it. What we are left with instead is a positive feeling about this group, and a sense that the past two hours have at least started them on the right path to correcting their problems. The film?s end, when they finally get the news about their son, is where the film shows whether or not it has succeeded: Are we as emotional as the family? Do we cry with them? Do we care? The answer is yes, and no audience member can say she or he didn?t feel like a member of the family and that you have lived through this crisis with them.
