Critic Reviews for Lifelines

All Critics (16) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (10) | Rotten (6)

  • Terrific performances rescue it, from Adams' wounded exhaustion to Pais's comical confusion and Walker's furious defiance, all hurled against Morton's patient 'listening' and advice.

    Roger Moore

    Orlando Sentinel

  • Lifelines is an insufferably over-familiar take on angst in affluent suburbia.

    April 23, 2009 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

    Kevin Thomas

    Los Angeles Times

  • Lifelines is a tiny movie, made for $385,000, but it strikes enough strange chords to make it resonate.

    April 3, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…
    New York Post

  • Written and directed by Rob Margolies, Lifelines starts promisingly, but soon gives way to a compressed, schematic psychodrama endemic.

    April 3, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

    Nathan Lee

    New York Times

  • Most of the movie is merely excruciating, until a late revelation elevates it into the realm of the sublimely ludicrous.

    Joshua Land

    Time Out

  • The film's befuddling direction and tone, queasy HD interiors, and tin-eared, often preposterous, screenplay prove disastrous.
