1 - 19 (sorted by date)
Top CriticLitvak's movie almost immediately barges across the line separating the comically absurd from the outright obnoxious.
05/05/06
Top CriticManages to be broad, mawkish and mean-spirited all at once.
05/05/06
Top CriticA haunting and disturbing film.
05/04/06
Top CriticThis abrasive Passover comedy-drama is extremely difficult to sit through, and if its makers weren't all Jewish, it would be considered anti-Semitic.
05/04/06
Top Critic... worth a look.
04/28/06
Top CriticOh, what a distasteful film.
04/24/06
Top CriticIts strong cast is loud and lively, and the bickering banter has snap and drive.
04/21/06
Top CriticA cute little Matzoh of a movie.
04/21/06
Top CriticCrass, chaotic comedy.
04/21/06
Top CriticThe movie's most distinctive feature is its cast, which has the fake lived-in comfort of a TV clan.
04/21/06
Top CriticIt borders on painful to see this cast go through the motions of this uninspired script.
04/20/06
Top CriticWatching this movie is kind of like being sprayed with emotional vomit.
04/20/06
Top CriticEven Jewish audiences will be hard-pressed to find something to enjoy in this highly stagy, claustrophobic depiction of a Seder populated by one wacky family that seems to include every stereotype in the book.
04/20/06
Top CriticAnother entry in indiedom's contest to create the most dysfunctional family.
04/17/06
Top CriticIn this distasteful film from Salvador Litvak, a Jewish family tries to race through a Seder, but drug use, possible incest and some jokes at the expense of the autistic slow them down.
04/07/06
Top CriticWhen Do We Eat? is as imperfect as the Stuckmans' Seder, yet it has some decent punchlines, a strong cast and a good heart.
04/07/06
Top CriticCliches and loud stereotypes as fresh as year-old matzoh infest When Do We Eat?, a farce about a wildly dysfunctional Los Angeles family's disastrous Passover Seder.
04/07/06
Top CriticA self-consciously zany dysfunctional family comedy, When Do We Eat? strains so hard to be outrageous that it sacrifices characters for caricatures. They might have had something if they'd let everybody relax, be themselves and enjoy dinner.
