Review For The Playroom
Modest in scale, it's the kind of American independent film that brings some honor to that shopworn descriptor.Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News
The film uses the upper-middle-class setting effectively, even as it resorts to heavy-handed symbolism and melodrama in its dour, mostly unforgiving portrait of parental dysfunction.
Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times
A detailed, and depressing portrait of grim, forced independence. Lightened only by the sense that if these kids are learning anything, it is how to survive.
Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
This imitation "Ice Storm" is as refreshing as a step into a puddle of slush.
Kyle Smith-New York Post
Between the loaded conversations and metaphors, and the phony overlay of a children's fairy tale, The Playroom can't stop telegraphing themes and interpreting itself. There's nothing left for the audience to do.
Scott Tobias-NPR
"The Playroom" captures the malaise of mid-'70s suburbia with a merciless accuracy not seen since Ang Lee's 1997 film, "The Ice Storm."
Stephen Holden-New York Times
It's a misfire from screenwriter Gretchen Dyer and director Julia Dyer, who can't connect the puzzle pieces, resulting in a movie of attentive performances working through ill-defined storytelling.
Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com
If The Ice Storm was a band, think of this as the minor-chord, label-unsigned, opening act for its opening act. Lovingly captured but dramatically inert.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com
A reliance on melodrama prevents a deeper and more insightful glimpse into the characters and subject matter.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
Parents seek joy, ignore kids in difficult, powerful drama.
S. Jhoanna Robledo-Common Sense Media
A chamber piece cousin to The Ice Storm, The Playroom hones in on the mentality of so many irresponsible '70s era parents whose children grew up to be much better people than their parents.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
What little story there is has no sense of real life, no matter much the film pretends to be about children learning hard truths.
Noel Murray-AV Club
[An] open-ended affair and slightly unsatisfying for it.
Joshua Rothkopf-Time Out New York
Lacking much in the way of character depth, the film attempts to fill the gap with melodrama.
Tomas Hachard-Slant Magazine
