Reviews for Bodies, Rest & Motion
They may be archetypes of my peers, but it's really hard to even care.

The film squeaks in its joints whenever it tries too hard to make a 'generational statement,' and may annoy you with its glibness, but it manages to hold one's interest -- surprisingly at times, given the lightweight characters.

Top CriticBodies, Rest and Motion is one of those movies that not only comes accompanied by supporting materials, but seems fairly pointless unless you brief yourself.

Top CriticExcruciating.

The charms of the performances and the likable, subtle comic driftings can be quite stimulating.
01/01/00
A great indie-list cast makes the angst worth watching.

This movie always reminds me of why I dig Eric Stoltz.

Aptly titled, the narrative applies Newton's famous law to charcaters that are in rest (actually more inertsia), forced to move by an external stimulus. Acting of central traingle, played by Bridget Fonda, Tim Roth, and Eric Stoltz, is good.
04/29/06
It's overall well-acted but often too stupid to bear.
09/24/05
Not much motion, but plenty of reason to rest

Annoying.
07/31/03
A generally winning romantic comedy possessing an unusual degree of self-importance, Bodies, Rest and Motion works primarily because of its likable cast.
09/07/03
The other actors share an easy, appealing rapport and a flair for dry understatement, which is the film's prevailing tone.

In an era when many motion pictures are going for 'big,' it's nice to see well-known actors in a 'small' film like this.
