Leave your thoughts about Smother.
| NewsBlazePrairie MillerNot exactly unequivocal accolades for the mom in your life, nor is it Mommie Dearest packing closet hangers. But there's a decided appreciation for the woman who raised you, warts and all, and debriefing of an assortment of lingering childhood grudges. |
| The Age (Australia)Jake WilsonThis film has its share of crass, unlikely jokes, but also allows its characters some psychological complexity. |
| VarietyJohn AndersonDiane Keaton can still sink her actorly teeth into a wacked-out character, and Vince Di Meglio's screwball comedy provides her with one of her best purely comedic roles since "Annie Hall." |
| Los Angeles TimesMark OlsenA promising effort that doesn't cohere into anything more, Smother never fully comes to life. |

| 7M PicturesKevin Carrsuffers from a distinct 'been there, done that' feeling to it |
| New York PostSandra HallIt's very sad to watch Keaton here. In the most excruciating scene, she gets drunk in a bar, staggers up to a microphone and starts to sing, or rather squawk. For those of us who still revere Annie Hall and her blissfully unaffected rendition of "Seems Like Old Times," this is sacrilege. |
| User ReviewZara PLoved it, i recommend it, it was really good, big thumbs up!! and Dianne Keaton is awsome =D |
| User ReviewRev. Kimberly BWe all have issues in our families, and sometimes we don't realize what those issues are. They come out one way but there may be an underlying issue. This movie is a work that should not be missed! |
| User ReviewVeronica AVery funny!!! Diane Keaton is always hilarious!!! |
