I Smile Back

The acting is ovbiously great here. But what impressed me the most, was actually how concise, well-paced and suspenseful the movie was. Because movies like this rarely ever are. Which is a shame, 'cause it's a great opportunity to make the audience feel at least a tiny bit as tense as whatever the main character is going through must feel.

Great bipolar experience given by Silverman It's always a struggle

Sarah Silverman is great, this is one of the best performances from her in this film. The script is dark and has some very messed up moments. It is hard to predict what is going to happen next in this film. I would recommend this drama.

We've seen movies like this before, from a therapeutic handbook that makes us suspicious and slow to trust. But Silverman, digging so deep into her character that we can feel her nerve endings, is like nothing we've seen before. She's fierce and unerring. No showing off; she just is. This is acting of the highest caliber.

I've been a big fan of Silverman and her comedy for many years now, but I've never seen her do such a dramatic role. She really pulls it off. She's not just incredibly funny - she's a real actor. And thank goodness, because the movie really needs her. It explores some fascinating topics, but fails to be fascinating itself. There were a handful of great scenes, & a handful of boring ones. It was decent overall, and I really liked the ending, but Silverman is the main reason to see this.

A serious drama about a housewife with midlife depression is not what I signed up for at all when I started to watch a Sarah SiIverman film. Not my genre, didn't finish it.

Sarah Silverman in a unapologetic dirty depressed housewife affair. Goes mostly for the shocking behavior then digging a little deeper into the character, but it works alright without hitting a major nerves.

A pretty gritty look at depression, coping, addiction, anxiety, and a few other negative things. It's certainly not an easy watch by Silverman does a great job.

An evocation of pain that isn't so much addressing suburban ennui as much as self-worth and, quite simply, "daddy issues." Although the movie is small in scope, it hits the exact mark that it's aiming for, adhering to one of life's simplest and most unfortunate rules: children do what their parents did. "I don't deserve to be your mother."A broken parent and breaking kids. A portrait of developmental entropy. Change is possible, but goddamn is it difficult. Cringeworthy in the best possible way.

Disappointing to see such a potentially great performance from Sarah Silverman ruined by a half-baked script.

"Mommy, he needs you." "I just want you to be happy." "Is that the sort of example you want to set for your children?" "Why haven't you taken your medication?" "It's not the way I pictured it, it's not perfect." "It's my fault, he's got my genes." "No pressure, really, I TOTALLY understand." "We didn't have any of this stuff when you were a kid, and you survived just fine." "Why is it so easy for you to look me in the eyes and lie to me?" "What do you people gotta make everything OK for?"
