(1 - 44) of 44 OFCS Rating: 80% Fresh Page   1   "Quaid's outrageous response to a surprise birthday party held in his character's honor simply brings down the house."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker A- "There are no throwaway stereotypes here, just well-rounded characters that resemble personalities that we come in contact with everyday."   FromTheBalcony   Bill Clark B- "This nearly terrific motion picture deserved a much more interesting resolution than to simply resemble every other film in the multiplex. "   FilmJerk.com   Brian Orndorf C+ "Flabby."   AboutFilm.com   Carlo Cavagna 2.5/5 "There’s a fantastic movie buried somewhere in here, and maybe Cameron Crowe or James L. Brooks could have pulled it out"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Barsanti "Globalization is nefarious. Nuclear families are good."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs "Globalization is nefarious. Nuclear families are good."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs "Globalization is nefarious. Nuclear families are good."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs "Globalization is nefarious. Nuclear families are good."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 4/5 "Does to Corporate America what 'American Pie' did to pastries."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger 3/4 "...creates fully-realized characters that are not just smart and dedicated, but also flawed and likable."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes 3/4 "Topher Grace dominates this smart and funny film with a thing or two to say about how people are treated and treat each other in the workplace."   Movie Boeuf   David N. Butterworth C+ "Wastes a great performance by Dennis Quaid."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 2.5/4 "A slice-of-life so purely amiable and astute in its portrayal of the cutthroat corporate world that it is easy to overlook a great many flaws in its design."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 3/5 "Una comedia más bien "seria" que no busca tu risa fácil sino que pases un rato entretenido junto a personajes humanos y creíbles a los que les pasan cosas humanas y creíbles."   Uruguay Total   Enrique Buchichio A- "Brilliantly walks the line between comedy and poignancy, being utterly funny without being shticky, and being touching without being shmaltzy."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider B+ "A crowd-pleaser, an actors' showcase, and a curious synergy of light comedy and heavy themes."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov B+ "A comedy at once pungent and charming...both amusingly cheeky and disarmingly serious--and an almost unalloyed treat."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 4/5 "A totally engaging film about how two men -- a middle-aged advertising sales manager and a young Turk -- deal with the changes that end up transforming their lives."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3/4 "Despite a static plot where little happens, In Good Company has two strengths to recommend it: strong character interaction and a viciously accurate depiction of the modern corporate philosophy."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3/4 "certainly intends for lessons to be learned, but it doesn't condescend in simple fashion"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 3/5 "Director Paul Weitz's struggle through the personal and political strife of modern corporate life is a good movie with a great cast."   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/4 "Dennis Quaid delivers a grounded performance that manages to smooth over the narrative rough patches."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth "The situations set up parallel stories, in which Dan must rediscover what it means to him to be a man, and Carter...learns from Dan that manhood isn’t what he thought it was."   Pajiba   Jeremy C. Fox 4/10 "File this one under Wait for DVD. And even then, you might want to wait a little more."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 2/5 "full review in Greek"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis 4.5/5 "They just don't make movies like this any more, yet this film is shiny and relevant to today."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 3/4 "It’s rare to find a film that is able to stop glorifying youth and show respect for maturity instead, and Quaid wonderfully embodies that."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest B "a sharp-eyed look at the soullessness of today's corporate America...with an unrealized romantic subplot"   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 2.5/5 "An inconsequential sitcom spiked with a couple of well-placed barbs."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 7/10 "The characters and the story of IN GOOD COMPANY have qualities not usually found in major studio productions. It is a dependent film with the heart of an independent one."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper "Witty and warm and wise in all the ways it can be..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3.5/4 "The story is believable and identifiable; the characters seem like genuine people, not pawns in a screenplay."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan B "The script feels patched together and stale but there is a lot of compensation in exceptionally warm and fully-realized performances by all of the principals."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 4/5 "Engraçado e humano, Em Boa Companhia perde-se apenas em seu terceiro ato."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 4/5 "Genuinely funny, realistically romantic and extremely well-played"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline B "Smarter-than-average romantic comedy with an unpredictable plot."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B+ "It's a smart, savvy and satisfying Hollywood comedy set in the real world of economic survival, family responsibility and grown-up decisions with real consequences."   Seattle Post-Intelligencer   Sean Axmaker "The picture has a pleasurable, good-natured glow. You can diagram its various problems as you're watching it and still walk away feeling you've had a good time."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek B "Not as sharp or quirky as About a Boy, but it has a stronger moral center, and the same humane, thoughtful approach to characters and ideas is at work."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 7/10 "A fresh, relevant statement about contemporary business and corporate politices merges with some old-fashioned sit-com schmaltz"   Modamag.com   Susan Granger 3/4 "Suggests just how isolating it can be to balance breaking your back for a job you don't particularly like with enjoying the people for whom you do it in the first place."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 6/10 Read review   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 3/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito  (1 - 44) of 44 OFCS Rating: 80% Fresh Page   1
