Critic Reviews of "Pleasantville"
VarietyOctober 18, 2008Ingeniously conceived and impressively executed, "Pleasantville" is a provocative, complex and surprisingly anti-nostalgic parable wrapped in the beguiling guise of a commercial high-concept comedy.
Time OutJune 24, 2006An ingenious fable, screenwriter Ross's directorial debut playfully spoofs the small-minded lifestyle idealised by 'family values' advocates, and the intolerance and insecurity underlying that ideal.
Minneapolis Star TribuneNovember 06, 2002The lighthearted fable Pleasantville takes some pointed swipes at the make-believe world of 1950s TV -- and none too soon.
San Francisco ChronicleJune 18, 2002There's a terrific idea at the heart of Pleasantville, and it's a shame that its creator, Big screenwriter Gary Ross, can't figure where to take it.
Globe and MailApril 12, 2002Endearing it definitely is, so much so that it's easy to overlook the simplicity, and the sly confidence trick that gets played on us.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 14, 2001Ends up having more on its mind than it can successfully handle.
EmanuelLevy.ComAugust 13, 2011Gary Ross (Big, Dave) makes an impressive directing debut with this charming, nicely executed fable, which contrasts values of the 1950s with those of the 1990s.
Common Sense MediaDecember 27, 2010Great movie for high schoolers and their parents.
Reeling ReviewsApril 09, 2005"Pleasantville" is a solid premier for director Ross, providing a thought-provoking story, solid acting and wonderful special F/X.
Arkansas Democrat-GazetteJanuary 29, 2005Someday, maybe someday soon, someone in Hollywood is going to make a genuinely great movie about television as a metaphor for America.
Jam! MoviesApril 13, 2004Hollywood satire is not usually this enjoyable: Both savage and silly, Pleasantville is an absolute blast.
