Dizzyingly original, the loopy, multi-layered Adaptation is both funny and thought-provoking.

In the wrong hands, the lunacy could have gotten out of control, but Jonze has near-perfect pitch. He never forces the farce, rooting even Kaufman's wildest digressions in real emotions. July 6, 2010 | Full Review…

For two-thirds of its running time the film is close to genius. But there's still no third act. June 24, 2006 | Full Review…

It's the sort of movie that keeps reinventing itself and nudging us in the ribs as it does. You'll want to see it soon, because everyone you know will be talking about it. April 27, 2003 | Rating: A-

A dense picture operating on more than one level, Adaptation. benefits from its warped comic sensibilities and one (make that two) of Cage's final great performances before his career free-fall. October 19, 2020 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

...what emerges from this hothouse union is a perfect hybrid, as unique and weird as a rare orchid. It is also, ironically enough for an adaptation, a true original. August 28, 2020 | Full Review…

There's no good reason why this should work-the picture is a schizzy, self-indulgent mess-but magically, it does. March 16, 2020 | Full Review…

Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman are able to keep Adaptation progressively lucid and amusing through the layered revelations of their postmodern musings. February 1, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
