Leave your thoughts about The Myth of Fingerprints.
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt's mainly through the efforts of the superior ensemble cast that the family drama turns out to be better than average. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittThe characters are sharply etched but the plot is made deliberately ambiguous, suggesting that family life is so emotionally intricate that no single story can contain or explain it. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversThis engrossing blend of humor and heartbreak only hints at the causes, from betrayal to child abuse, of this family's dysfunction. Hang on. Attention is richly rewarded. |
| San Francisco ExaminerJeffrey M. AndersonA dull indie hand-crafted for the Sundance Festival and not much else. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliA low-key holiday drama that's refreshing not only because it lacks the big discovery melodrama of most similar movies but because it's entirely believable. |
| NewsweekB.J. SigesmundStands as a wonderful ensemble piece not unlike Woody Allen's dramas "Interiors" and "September." |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranIt's a decorous film, conventionally well-made, but don't be fooled. Its emotional impact is considerable. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghIt's probably not the last word in WASP angst, but it's eloquent, witty, graceful and as sharp as can be. |
| SlateDavid EdelsteinHas spasms of silliness that thaw things out delightfully. Davis plays Vartan's girlfriend as an irrepressible, sexed-up brat, and gives every line a little hop, skip, and jump. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenLess can sometimes be perceived as more, but in the case of The Myth of Fingerprints less is simply less. |
