Critic Reviews of "Life as a House"
Globe and MailMarch 19, 2002Gauged strictly by the gag-factor, a more honest title might be Life as a Basement Apartment with Bad Light and a Dank Smell.
ReelViewsNovember 27, 2001The movie gets us to feel about the characters, their relationships, and their circumstances, and that goes a long way towards allowing us to forgive the screenplays' occasional mis-steps and wrong turns.
Seattle TimesNovember 02, 2001Life as a House reaches easily past all your intellectual and emotional barriers, back into that spot behind your heart, where the levers that release tears are stored.
Detroit Free PressNovember 02, 2001There's a prefab construction to Life as a House that prevents it from acquiring the emotional solidness it needs to stand out.
Denver PostNovember 02, 2001House may suffer from excessive and unnecessary ornamentation, but its foundation -- Kline's performance -- is solid and strong.
Orlando SentinelNovember 01, 2001Kline never lets the soap-opera implications get the better of him.
EmanuelLevy.ComJune 02, 2011This father-son melodrama is well acted, but it's too solemn and too concerned with being inspirational
Common Sense MediaDecember 25, 2010Uneven but moving story of reconcilliation.
Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY)June 25, 2004Remember the movie Terms of Endearment, about a mother-daughter relationship, a terminal illness and a message about not taking people for granted?
Film Quips OnlineFebruary 08, 2003Thank goodness there are actors capable of delivering performances better than the scripts they're given. Too bad there aren't more of them in this movie.
Billings Outpost (Montana)November 26, 2002Life as a House is no cinematic masterpiece but it stays with you.
Arkansas Democrat-GazetteOctober 30, 2002...the people who assembled Life as a House imagined it as a kind of American Beauty for the slightly more-literal-minded, for those who hated or felt baffled that film will likely like and apprehend this one.
