Laden with schmaltz and largely bereft of evident narrative purpose, North represents an early major disappointment from previously sure-handed director Rob Reiner.

The amalgams of TV stereotypes that satirize foreign and regional cultures are embarrassing. Jul 9, 2013

It's a prime example of what can happen when hip, slightly cynical establishment filmmakers try to make a deeply sentimental movie. Jun 5, 2013 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The intrinsic failure of Alan Zweibel and Andrew Scheinman's script is that it tips its hand from the start. Mar 26, 2009

Reiner is undecided just how fantastically he should treat this ludicrous plotline. Added to which there's a dire musical number, a silly thriller subplot, and much maudlin didacticism from narrator Willis in various guardian angel (dis)guises. Misery. Jan 26, 2006 | Full Review…

It is a childish world seen through the ponderous eyes of adulthood. All the children in it, including Elijah Wood as North, seem over-directed, reacting with programmed cuteness. Their lines have a hack's glibness rather than a child's innocence. Dec 12, 2017 | Full Review…

There's schmaltz a-plenty and the odd, rare laugh but even the normally dependable Wood lacks enthusiasm. Jun 5, 2013 | Full Review…

The screenplay by Alan Zweibel and Andrew Scheinman packs more on-target social satire than any film in recent memory, and zesty performances keep it clicking along at a rapid pace. Jun 5, 2013 | Full Review…

It's rather surprising to note that - for its first half, at least - North is actually quite engaging and entertaining... Jan 9, 2011 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…
