A gripping, searing portrait of a lost soul trying to find her way through life.

[Bennett's] quite convincing as she tries to figure out what has gone wrong in her personal life -- and how she can fix it before it is too late.

Some Body often looks like an episode of the TV show Blind Date, only less technically proficient and without the pop-up comments.

Some Body smacks of exhibitionism more than it does cathartic truth telling.

Ms. Bennett is worth watching, and her story is weirdly detailed enough to prove once more that truth is too strange for good fiction.

An unremittingly ugly movie to look at, listen to, and think about, it is quite possibly the sturdiest example yet of why the DV revolution has cheapened the artistry of making a film.
