Critic Reviews of "I Smile Back"
Globe and MailDecember 04, 2015Silverman delivers a knockout performance - any memories of her scatalogical stand-up act are washed away in an instant. But her intense commitment to the depths of depression belongs in a better, more focused, less derivative film.
Toronto SunDecember 03, 2015I Smile Back isn't a candy-coated, noble depiction of addiction and the toll it takes on families, but rather a bleak yet honest look at how regular people lose themselves, and how difficult it can be to find the way back.
Toronto StarDecember 03, 2015I Smile Back pummels with nastiness, then moves from one shocking event to the next without a backward glance.
Seattle TimesNovember 05, 2015Silverman's performance, while good, is by no means great, and she is not able to transcend what amounts to a little too much sweetness and light in this cinematic "Smile."
Boston GlobeNovember 05, 2015Silverman is far and away the best part of "I Smile Back," a strained entry in the Mad Housewife genre.
Chicago Sun-TimesNovember 05, 2015A tough, unbending, sometimes brutally truthful profile of one woman's addiction and the havoc it wreaks on herself and just about everyone who matters to her.
MovieFreak.comAugust 22, 2016I Smile Back might not rewrite the addiction or mental illness melodrama rule book but that doesn't make it less affecting, Silverman's spectacular performance alone making the price of a ticket well worth spending.
rec.arts.movies.reviewsAugust 15, 2016Silverman is excellent, but she could use a better script.
FlavorwireMay 30, 2016'I Smile Back' could very well be just another addiction drama, were it not for the power and force of Silverman's performance, which she plays with such raw openness that she transcends the material.
The Film StageFebruary 24, 2016At a running time of 85 minutes, we learn too little about Laney and too much about her addiction.
Laramie Movie ScopeJanuary 21, 2016It would be nice if this film offered more hope for Laney, but it isn't that kind of film. It is just a slice of life, and a pretty depressing slice at that, with a disturbing beginning, a dismal end and false hope in the middle.
Eye for FilmDecember 17, 2015The sort of reductionism one finds in cautionary videos made for schools, with equally weak logic.
