Critic Reviews of "The Descendants"
Time OutJanuary 24, 2012Payne is an unobtrusive director, a filmmaker who lets the script do the walking - in this case, perhaps too much.
indieWireDecember 02, 2011The challenge in describing the film is that it doesn't neatly fit into any pigeonhole. It's a serious movie that happens to have a sense of humor, because Payne and his collaborators see the absurdity in everyday existence.
Detroit NewsNovember 23, 2011One of the year's best films, a bubbly meditation on family and responsibility that weighs just enough to matter.
Miami HeraldNovember 22, 2011In the hands of writer-director Alexander Payne, Clooney has rarely seemed so much at home.
St. Louis Post-DispatchNovember 22, 2011In playing an everyman stranded between anger and duty, Clooney earns an emotional payoff that a lesser actor would simply demand.
Epoch TimesJuly 03, 2016Director Alexander Payne is a master storyteller of the huge life transition. 'Sideways' is one stellar example, 'About Schmidt', another. 'Descendants' easily rivals 'Sideways.'
AARP Movies for GrownupsJune 10, 2016Clooney and Payne share an uncanny knack for that wistful smile in the face of havoc; for conveying the peace that comes from having lived a life, from having seen disasters come and go, and from knowing that, one way or another, this too shall pass.
Critic's NotebookOctober 07, 2015Mr. Payne's undeniable knack for naturalism makes "The Descendants" a wholly persuasive and heartfelt experience.
Philadelphia WeeklyMay 03, 2015I enjoyed Clooney's performance enormously without ever buying it for a second.
TrespassSeptember 08, 2013The Descendants is an exercise in why women are such horrible, despicable shrews. When this film isn't demonising its female characters for daring to be unhappy in their marriage, it's condescending them for showing too much emotion...
DeadspinJune 22, 2013A truthful, warm-hearted, deeply moving film about loss, about death, about legacies and, yeah, family.
