Critic Reviews of "Waiting to Exhale"
Globe and MailApril 12, 2002Never escapes the queasy aura of Melrose Place: just another story about beautiful people with small problems.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 13, 2001A pleasant if undemanding piece of work that is diverting to sit through though it won't stand up to any kind of rigorous examination.
San Francisco ChronicleJanuary 01, 2000You want the movie to stomp and rejoice and cry like a fool; instead it meanders and lollygags, occasionally flaring up, then sputtering again.
Detroit NewsJanuary 01, 2000For all the pleasure there is in seeing effective, great-looking black women grappling with major life issues on screen, Waiting to Exhale is an uneven piece.
Salon.comJanuary 01, 2000The male-bashing taken to an extreme in Waiting to Exhale is starting to seem a little like crack for the female psyche, exhilarating in the short term but ultimately crippling and dangerous.
ReelViewsJanuary 01, 2000With the exception of Bernadine, I never felt anything for the women populating this film, as they failed to capture my interest or sympathy.
EmanuelLevy.ComSeptember 19, 2006Stylish but shallow melodrama, based on McMillan's best-seller.
TheMovieReport.comDecember 21, 2004Whitney Houston's alleged dramatic acting and dull, uninvolving storyline weighs down the virtues of the film.
Spirituality and PracticeAugust 29, 2002Offers a winning portrait of sassy black sister solidarity.
Boxoffice MagazineJune 05, 2002There are some humorous observations, irrefutable truths and good performances that make this movie worthwhile to those in a man-bashing mindframe.
Film ScoutsApril 17, 2002Is there a woman alive who hasn't demanded an explanation from the Almighty about the losers that she keeps getting?
San Francisco ExaminerJanuary 01, 2000Four main female characters trudging through a movie's worth of similar repeated blunders adds up to one scary truckload of drama.
