Entertainment Reviews:
Krasinski preserves Wallace's whooshing roller coasters of words, powered by the fuel of confession. -- Grade: B-
Entertainment Weekly
[Brief Interviews] is within the limits of the medium, a rigorous record of the process of thought.

Stop Smiling
Rating: 4/10 --
Faced with the unenviable choice between honoring his daunting inspiration and telling his own story, the director shoots straight down the middle -- and misses both targets.

NPR
Everywhere this poor lady tries to go, there's always a guy or two loudly performing a David Foster Wallace monologue within earshot.
Philadelphia Weekly
[Krasinski's] generosity of intent is really the main impression that remains. He read, he loved, and unfortunately, he did not conquer.

TIME Magazine
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The urgency of the tales gets lost along the way, weighed down by staginess and an inconsistent tone, although Krasinski's ambition suggests a noble failure.

Not since IN THE COMPANY OF MEN has the male gender been so ruthlessly portrayed on screen....Ingeniously structured and beautifully acted...
