Critic Reviews of "The Beaver"
Leah Rozen TheWrapOctober 07, 2011It's a bummer of a movie -- dark and at cross-purposes with both itself and any image do-over [Gibson] might be seeking.
Dave Calhoun Time OutJune 15, 2011Beyond the initial idea, this is kid gloves filmmaking, when what we need is a bit more of the gloves-off stuff.
Tom Long Detroit NewsMay 20, 2011The acting throughout -- Foster, Lawrence, Yelchin -- is superb, and this may well be Gibson's finest performance, just as it's Foster's most balanced job of directing.
Lisa Kennedy Denver PostMay 20, 2011The film is amusing, then melancholy, then weirdly funny, then not. It's a quiet, measured work.
David Germain Associated PressMay 20, 2011With The Beaver, Gibson shows that for all his personal turmoil, he still may have a career in the twilight years.
Claudia Puig USA TodayMay 20, 2011For a film about the real problem of mental illness, it never feels authentic. Depression is not something neatly tied up. If this is meant as an allegory, it's vague and unconvincing.
Roe McDermott Hot PressMarch 14, 2016The quirky concept and Gibson's powerhouse performance give The Beaver unexpected resonance.
Sean Burns The Improper BostonianMay 12, 2015It doesn't quite work, but it does provide something of a cinematic exorcism for the public's increasingly conflicted relationship with Gibson.
Will Leitch DeadspinJune 22, 2013Thinks it's a whimsical tale of a man finding himself, but Gibson thinks it's the tale of a man losing his mind.
Amy Curtis We Got This CoveredJune 02, 2013Jodie Foster's The Beaver had its moments, but the overall premise just didn't fly. I just couldn't buy the idea of the talking puppet.
Ben Kendrick ScreenRantOctober 02, 2012A unique and thoughtful project that showcases a charming, as well as unconventional, character journey -- and one of Gibson's best roles to date.
