Reviews for Never Again
Top CriticAfter a while, Never Again gets so busy celebrating ageless virility that it forgets to tell a decent story.
08/08/02
Top CriticThere are enough things that poke out rather boldly from Never Again's modest proportions to keep it verging on interesting. And not all of them are strapped to Jill Clayburgh's waist.
07/26/02
Top CriticJust offbeat enough to keep you interested without coming close to bowling you over.
07/26/02
Top CriticClayburgh and Tambor are charming performers; neither of them deserves Eric Schaeffer.
07/26/02
Top CriticRarely does a film so graceless and devoid of merit as this one come along.
07/26/02
Top CriticWhat Eric Schaeffer has accomplished with Never Again may not, strictly speaking, qualify as revolutionary. But it's defiantly and delightfully against the grain.
07/19/02
Top CriticFull of the kind of obnoxious chitchat that only self-aware neurotics engage in.
07/19/02
Top CriticExcruciatingly unfunny and pitifully unromantic.
07/19/02
Top CriticNever Again swings between false sentiment and unfunny madcap comedy and, along the way, expects the audience to invest in the central relationship as some kind of marriage of true minds.
07/19/02
Top CriticThe character is too forced and overwritten to be funny or believable much of the time, and Clayburgh doesn't always improve the over-the-top mix.
07/19/02
Top CriticHere's a case of two actors who do everything humanly possible to create characters who are sweet and believable, and are defeated by a screenplay that forces them into bizarre, implausible behavior.
07/19/02
Top CriticA bad movie that happened to good actors.
07/18/02
Top CriticI doubt if the solution to the movie industry's ludicrous ageism is showing 50-year-olds acting like randy 20-year-olds.
07/18/02
Top CriticThe characters are a major pain in the ass, to each other and to us.
07/17/02
Top CriticThumbs up.
07/15/02
Top CriticSchaeffer has to find some hook on which to hang his persistently useless movies, and it might as well be the resuscitation of the middle-aged character.
07/12/02
Top CriticSchaeffer successfully teams Jeffrey Tambor and Jill Clayburgh in a middle-aged romance between a pair of wary divorces, only to shoot them down with some of the most tasteless dialogue ever spoken in a mainstream movie.
07/12/02
Top CriticSchaeffer should take the advice of his own movie's title the next time he thinks about coercing some poor actress into making a fool of herself.
07/12/02
Top CriticAs conceived by Mr. Schaeffer, Christopher and Grace are little more than collections of quirky traits lifted from a screenwriter's outline and thrown at actors charged with the impossible task of making them jell.
