A young couple, Peter and Ruby, are married with three children. On a weekend trip a tight-knit group of friends confront them about their constant bickering and propose they divorce. Reacting in anger, the couple clearly realize the truth in what their friends are trying to say; nonetheless, they remember their old feelings for each other and decide instead to strive to improve their relationship. Later, the intervention is turned around on Annie (Lynskey) and her alcohol problem, while she begins to realize that her conspired marriage intervention for Ruby and Peter may have been based on her suppressed doubts about her own impending wedding.
Leave your thoughts about The Intervention.
| Shockya.comHarvey S. KartenFollows the pattern of "The Return of the Secaucus Seven." |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferEngrossing, wise, funny and well-acted. How refreshing it is to watch an American film that's for adults, that can't be turned into a video game. and where no one gets eaten by zombies for a change! |
| Entertainment WeeklyKevin P. SullivanTears are shed. Laughs are had. Some jokes land better than others. The script wobbles between heavy-handed and touching, but the result is a pleasantly nostalgic throwback that’s saved from its copy-cat tendencies by charismatic actors. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldThe Intervention feels confident and accomplished: The cast immediately seems to bond as a group, with each playing a distinctive, recognizable character. And as the camera becomes a discreet ninth guest, you quickly find that you care about these people. |
| AV ClubMike D'AngeloClea DuVall makes her debut here as writer-director, and after two decades in front of the camera, she knows actors — but the movie’s stifling familiarity prevents it from making much of an impact. |
| AwardsWatchErik AndersonThe Intervention may not break new ground but manages a humor and pathos in a wonderfully observant female-driven dramedy (both in front of and behind the camera) with something for everyone. |
| HeraldNet (Everett, WA)Robert HortonThe situation yields a few expected comic twists, and some mild revelations. But the main fun is the performances by the women. |
| LRMEdward DouglasAs funny as it ends up being, it's also quite thought-provoking, because it makes you think about whether you're satisfied with your own relationships |
| SF WeeklySherilyn ConnellyThe Intervention pulls off the 'group of friends hash out their problems over a long weekend' story in a way that many other movies fail to do. |
| Bullz-Eye.comJack GirouxDuVall's grasp on tone is just another one of the many strengths she exhibits as a filmmaker with this genuine, often comforting movie. |
