Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 9/10 by Jay CarrYou'll care what happens in this film with more than enough freshness and originality to avoid succumbing to girls-on-the-run cliches.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversMcTeer delivers a messily cheerful performance as a woman who thinks nothing of brushing her teeth with beer.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Owen GleibermanRarely have two actresses been so effortless in their intimacy.
Mr. Showbiz - 8/10 by Kevin MaynardThough similar thematically to "Anywhere But Here," Tumbleweeds is a breath of fresh air that busts the cliches of dysfunctional mother-daughter sagas.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Jami BernardWhat keeps these mother-daughter tumbleweeds from drifting right out of consciousness is the unique rapport between the actresses.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertMovies like Tumbleweeds exist in the details, not the outcome. Even a happy ending, we suspect, would be temporary. We don't mind, since the characters have been intriguing to know and easy to care about.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonThis smart, hardscrabble, very likable film has a heart and spirit all its own: a rollicking, earthy flair and lusty intelligence.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 8/10 by Paula NechakAn indie film that was lavishly praised and won the Filmmakers Trophy at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, rolls along in the well-rutted, dusty tire tracks of other mother-and-daughter road trip
Christian Science Monitor - 8/10 by David SterrittThe story is as rambling as the characters, but superb acting by McTeer and Brown goes a long way toward redeeming it.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Peter StackBound by mother-daughter ties that are complex, touching, ultimately so powerful they yield the kind of tearful joy rarely experienced at the movies.
