AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: This Party features a killer cast and many funny scenes, but the movie feels like nothing more than an excuse for the actors to emote.

Too formlessly turgid.
The acting is what makes this picture worth framing.
The best thing that one can say about The Anniversary Party is that it raises more questions about its central characters than it can possibly answer -- which may weaken it as a drama but not as a search for truth.
The result is something like being stuck at an audition for someone else's play, which you haven't read, won't invest in, and don't care too much about.
What distinguishes The Anniversary Party from the movies/lives that inspired it is the dead-on quality of much of the writing and acting.
If digital looks like this and makes it possible for such funny and intimate chamber pieces to come into existence, then bring on the digital movies.
Audience Reviews for The Anniversary Party
This is what happens when you let just anyone direct films...films like these.
Super Reviewer
There's something quite unusual about this movie. It's like the Big Chill for the new millenium.
