Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Owen GleibermanThere's a slightness to Postcards From the Edge, and a little too much satirical self-help jargon (the story is all about how Suzanne learns to like herself). But the movie captures — and celebrates — how easy it is to turn your problems into show biz.
Time - 9/10 by Richard CorlissTheir drugs are Cigarettes, Television, and Hostess Cup Cakes. In the end, if I am ever reincarnated and I have my choice between hating my White Trash Mom or hating my movie star Mom. I'm picking the movie star Mom every time.
Movie Poop Shoot - 8/10 by Michael DequinaGrafts one screen formula on top of another--but that doesn't mean the film isn't a blast to watch.
The New York Times - 8/10 by Vincent CanbyPostcards From the Edge seems to have been a terrifically genial collaboration between the writer and the director, Miss Fisher's tale of odd-ball woe being perfect material for Mr. Nichols's particular ability to discover the humane sensibility within the absurd.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Gene SiskelThe Cutting Edge is a marriage of two durable Hollywood genres: It's an Underdog in Training sports film, crossed with that most beloved of all romantic formulas, the Incompatibles in Love. There is essentially not an original moment in the entire film, and yet it's skillfully made and well-acted.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliAnyone expecting a movie dominated by figure skating will be disappointed. The Cutting Edge concentrates on its characters, with the skating limited to a supporting role. This is not a movie for cynics, nor for those who don't occasionally like to sit back and enjoy an undemanding, "comfortable" film. For unadulterated fun, The Cutting Edge may not earn a gold medal, but it's worth at least a bronze.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kevin ThomasThe off-the-rink sequences bristle with as much passion and energy as the dazzling skating sequences, featuring some of the world’s greatest figure skaters.
The New York Times - 8/10 by Stephen HoldenAlthough the movie follows the standard Hollywood formula of pictures dealing with athletic competition, it is snappily paced and unusually well acted.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Joan AndermanPostcards is a mixed bag. There are a number of entertaining moments; however, potentially rich characters and situations wither from lack of development for the sake of the central relationship, which is never wholly convincing.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertStreep is very funny in the movie; she does a good job of catching the knife-edged throwaway lines that have become Carrie Fisher's speciality. And director Mike Nichols captures a certain kind of difficult reality in his scenes on movie sets, where the actress is pulled this way and that by people offering helpful advice. Everyone wants a piece of a star, even a falling one.
