Critic Reviews of "Why Stop Now"
Minneapolis Star TribuneSeptember 06, 2012First-time directors Phil Dorling and Ron Nyswaner can't find a coherent emotional tone, and the actors' energetic contortions can't keep the sinking story afloat.
New York PostAugust 17, 2012Drug abuse stories are to Hollywood what babies are to mothers: fascinating to the talkers, not so interesting for their audiences.
Los Angeles TimesAugust 16, 2012Feels trapped in the limbo between comedy and drama where many indies gamely venture, but from which few emerge with any resonance.
New York TimesAugust 16, 2012As "Why Stop Now?" gathers momentum, the increasingly uneasy sensation it produces is not unlike that of being in the back seat of a speeding car whose drunken driver refuses to give up the wheel.
NPRAugust 16, 2012Why Stop Now refuses to keep faith with its characters, to carry them as far as they can go without tying them up in a neat bow of redemption.
New York Daily NewsAugust 16, 2012This comic drama tries too hard to serve up a slice of manic life, but Eisenberg, along with Tracy Morgan and Isiah Whitlock Jr. as the affable druggies, provides some spark.
QuickflixMarch 04, 2014It descends into a series of mawkish, over-melodramatic scenes that are entirely unearned and often unpleasantly noisy. It's never especially funny or dramatic and leaves the viewer feeling unsure of what the filmmakers were really trying to achieve.
Paste MagazineAugust 23, 2012An odd mix of blatantly comedic moments and strangely serious scenes, Why Stop Now finds itself stranded on an odd middle ground between comedy and drama.
ScreenCrushAugust 21, 2012The alleged comedy 'Why Stop Now' is here to prove that when it tries really, really hard to be awful it can overcome the obstacle of having a terrific cast.
Hollywood & FineAugust 17, 2012Boasts such a diverse cast of recognizable faces that you have to wonder where it all went wrong..a half-hearted tale that should land with more impact than it does.
honeycuttshollywood.comAugust 16, 2012Each actor is adept at twisting a line or bit of spectacular illogic so gasps turn to laughs.
