2/5
"It's an impressively convoluted piece of writing, but it loses it shine when it becomes clear that neither Moffett nor Pate know where they are going with these stories"  Filmcritic.com  Chris Cabin

4/10
"As all of Shrink's seemingly disparate stories begin to fall too cleverly into each other, it's easy to be distracted by some fine performances."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

3/4
"...ultimately less successful as a fully-realized drama than as a showcase for its myriad of talented actors."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

C-
"Almost everyone's miserable in Shrink--but nobody more so than a person unlucky enough to be watching it."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

"A depressing drama about a Hollywood shrink who has it all and is experiencing a crisis."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

B+
"Spacey is mesmerizing as the "compassion fatigued" Carter. The pain and anger of his character are palpable, as is his heart-wrenching frustration."  Beliefnet  Nell Minow

"It's another Los Angeles movie that is alternately self-congratulatory and self-pitying..."  MSN.com  Sean Axmaker

2.5/5
"There are a few stories in Shrink that are interesting enough, but when all of them are in the same movie, surrounded by other, less interesting concepts, none of them have the screen time they need to come to fruition."  DVDTalk.com  Tyler Foster

"Click here to see review"  Wolf Entertainment Guide  William Wolf
