Rating: 2/5 -- As for Aniston, she gives an honest, well-intentioned performance, but it is marooned in an unsatisfying script whose emotional effects are unearned. Full Review

It's Aniston, a no-bull force of nature, who toughens things up. She doesn't skim the surface of Claire Simmons, an L.A. divorcee hooked on painkillers; she inhabits her with restraint, bruised emotion and scathing wit.

Rating: 2/5 -- A brilliant Jennifer Aniston lead performance isn't enough to save this doughy, maudlin piece of misery porn.

Rating: 3/5 -- Cake is an emotionally moving film carried by Aniston's sharp performance; however its shallow treatment of relationships means it fails to be more than the sum of its parts. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- It's refreshing to see the talented actress working outside the studio system in a performance that stands out as one of her best to date. Unfortunately, the rest of the film feels like one big, bland pity-party. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Barnz's Cake could have been an intriguing look into the world of chronic pain and depression, but trying to be a jack-of-all-trades ruined the film and left it a master of none. Full Review
