It has a brisk, well-turned-out quality that augurs well for Harris, the son of Richard Harris. Helping set and maintain the film's smart tone is Chaz Jankel and David Storrs' deft, trendy score. Nov 8, 2013 | Full Review…

Pryce gives one of the year's most refreshingly uninhibited performances as the boy's weird, postmodern hippie brother-in-law Norman. And Fletcher is a genuine star. His devilish precocity makes The Rachel Papers a bracing treat. Jan 1, 2000 | Full Review…

Captures the brash boldness of the novel, but not the literary wit. A misguided affair. Nov 8, 2013 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

All except the main character are played by good actors, does that make sense? The story is realistic, but kinda boring, an the main character annoys me. Overall, it's okay.
