Leave your thoughts about The Safety of Objects.
| Hollywood ReporterDavid HunterWith a long running time that no amount of nonlinear construction can successfully quicken, Safety does have sequences and whole story lines that are fresh and thoughtfully entertaining. |
| AboutFilm.comCarlo CavagnaThe characters are unusual enough, the dialogue sharp enough, and the acting good enough that it is relatively pleasant watching these lives for a couple hours. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonAlthough it has moments of charm and poignancy -- this is one of Glenn Close's best hours -- the scheme and scope of the movie are just too darned obvious. |
| Dallas Morning NewsChris VognarHappiness is a Magnolia Ice Storm of American Beauty. |
| Chicago TribuneRobert K. ElderPresented with such confidence, such care, that we love all of the characters, even if we don't like them. |
| Boxoffice MagazineShlomo SchwartzbergBadly acted by almost everyone concerned, obvious in its metaphors and idiotically structured. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsGlenn WhippAn unmemorable stew of familiar suburban angst. |
| USA TodayClaudia PuigThe interwoven stories are haunting, but also darkly funny. |
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonTroche ... seems to be tuned into Homes' writing, but without really knowing how to translate it to a cinematic narrative. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...there's a lot worth recommending about the film. |
