Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertTolkin gives us one richly detailed set piece after another, involving luncheons, openings, massages, telephone tag, psychic consultations, sex, heartfelt conversation, and pagan rituals led by a bald-headed woman who sees what others cannot see.
Hartford Courant - 8/10 by Malcolm JohnsonThe realities of their performances prove insufficient to pull Tolkin's bitter and deliberate tale from its doldrums, however, and this film lives u p to its title. Most of the time, it proves as repetitive and empty as an endless New Wave rhapsody.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Lisa SchwarzbaumA dark, ambitious, unsettling piece of work.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Gene SiskelA sometimes smart social commentary on Los Angeles characters who seek spiritual salvation when they can't buy every object they want. Judy Davis and Peter Weller play a trendy couple who look like they are from the outtakes of "Short Cuts" and "The Player."
The New York Times - 7/10 by Janet MaslinTolkin's characters are annoying, yet there is something appealing in their misguided and consumer-driven search for the higher meaning. Tolkin's script may not measure up to the fast-paced verbal sparring of The Player but Judy Davis' performance is, as always, mesmerizing and hilarious.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevySporadically witty but not too deep, New Age, Tolkin's second feature as a director continues to explore satirically the lives of self-abosrbed yuppies on the verge of economic and moral collpase.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 6/10 by Steven ReaAt one point in The New Age, the terminally stylish post-yuppie couple played by Peter Weller and Judy Davis put on their fanciest threads in order to commit double suicide, but can't go through with it. Like them, Michael Tolkin's film gets all dressed up but doesn't quite know where to go.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Chris WillmanIt's nearly impossible to put together a picture about ennui without dramatically succumbing to it in a big way. Michael Tolkin, talent that he is, isn't yet the movie maker to meet the feat.
Spirituality and Practice - 4/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatPresents a scathing critique of the emptiness in the lives of a couple addicted to materialism.
User Review - 6/10 by Carl Mwas an ok film could have been better than what it was.
