Eric Hynes, Village Voice: EXCELLENT "By turns sweet and salty, quirky and dirty, idealized and bleak... there's nothing quite like it... it's a democratic and quietly devastating dissection of fidelity and its discontents."(Read the full review...) 102 words, 04/18/12

Katey Rich, Cinema Blend: OUTSTANDING(cg) "...a simple, almost fable-like love triangle.... 'Take This Waltz' demands that you live inside it, with its languid pace and candy colors and heroine who can't help but make a lot of infuriatingly bad decisions.... a passionate and remarkable movie."(Read the full review...) 819 words, 09/11/11
Ed Gonzalez, Slant: GOOD (NOT GREAT)(cg) "...isn't unlike walking through an arts and crafts store... it's tempting to cut Polley some slack for whipping up a story whose every conceit is so obviously constructed."(Read the full review...) 885 words, 04/17/12
HIGHBROW PRESS (1 Review)
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon: EXCELLENT "Features the reliably terrific Michelle Williams in one of her best roles, as a hipsterized, slightly unhinged woman who got married too young and meets a mysterious stranger who makes her regret it.... a heartbreaking love story..."(Read the full review...) 957 words, 09/15/11
MOVIE INDUSTRY (2 Reviews)
Justin Chang, Daily Variety: EXCELLENT "Writer-director Sarah Polley wrings maximum tension, humor and emotional complexity from a young wife's crisis of conscience.... [features] superb performances by Michelle Williams and Seth Rogen."(Read the full review...) 921 words, 09/12/11
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter: FAIR "Sarah Polley's banal second feature is emotionally fraudulent and far too infatuated with its own preciousness.... it has a hard time deciding if it wants to be a happy-sad, flaky comedy or a dreamy mood piece."(Read the full review...) 854 words, 09/11/11
