Life Reviews
Combustible Celluloid
Life is a surprise that not only avoids typical trappings, but throws in a tinge of the bittersweet as well.
Lively, packed with colorful characters and spiked with outbursts of outrageous banter!
Screen It!
Although it's not as constantly and/or outrageously funny as one would expect, the film is certainly easy to sit through and has enough laughs and otherwise entertaining moments.
Charlotte Observer
The bickering of the two leads is funny in a loose, maybe improvisational way.
What's most effective about Life is the skillful way in which it blends poignancy into its broad tale.
Christian Science Monitor
The movie doesn't care much about realism, depicting the rigors of prison-farm life about as convincingly as Life Is Beautiful portrays a Nazi death camp. But it makes up in energy what it lacks in authenticity.
