Leave your thoughts about Where Is Kyra?.
| RogerEbert.comChristy LemireHere, Pfeiffer’s Kyra is our conduit to a world of anxiety and destitution within a seemingly exciting, glamorous city. And she’s absolutely heartbreaking with just the slightest register of sadness in a gesture or facial expression. |
| Rolling StoneDavid FearPfeiffer gives an incredible performance as a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown. |
| AV ClubMike D'AngeloUnlike Oren Moverman’s superficially similar "Time Out Of Mind," in which Richard Gere plays a homeless man, Where Is Kyra? doesn’t constantly feel like what it necessarily is: the work of wealthy people simulating poverty. In part, that’s thanks to Pfeiffer’s vanity-free, internalized performance, which could hardly be more different from her deliciously abrasive turn in last year’s "Mother!" (It’s great to have her back.) |
| indieWireEric KohnThe movie casts an unmistakable spell out of Pfeiffer’s ability to imbue Kyra with a profound sense of sorrow. |
| MetroGary M. KramerPfeiffer's remarkable, gutsy performance makes her character's despondency palpable just through the weariness of her expressions and body language. |
| VarietyGuy LodgeThe emotional range of Pfeiffer’s riveting performance isn’t a broad one, though this frequently nonverbal film is entirely reliant on her cutting powers of expression as she progresses from harrowed to exhausted and back, at risk of disappearing into herself entirely. |
| Screen InternationalTim GriersonA shattering portrait of a luckless woman unable to pull out of the tailspin that is her life, Where Is Kyra? is a powerfully moody character study anchored by a remarkable performance from Michelle Pfeiffer. |
| Eye for FilmAmber WilkinsonThis is life on a knife-edge and it cuts accordingly. |
| Time OutJoshua RothkopfPfeiffer is nothing short of heartbreaking in a part that requires her to be completely unvarnished. |
| Film ThreatNick Rocco ScaliaIt's a difficult movie with little in the way of brightness - except, of course, for the still-spellbinding, still-essential actress whose talent radiates from its center. |
