The plot of the movie is kind of wicked and free; the first half soars more than the second, but satisfaction and belly-laughs abound. October 23, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A ramshackle, winningly raw coming-of-middle-age shot in vivid black and white but told in emotional Technicolor. October 21, 2020 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

[Radha's] real hope is if she can create her own space. The Forty-Year-Old Version -- witty and deeply personal -- is Blank doing exactly that. October 12, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

If the movie is sharp, it's never sour, and that's thanks both to Blank's writing and her very presence: her creation Radha is radically, raunchily truthful, but we can see her fragility too. October 10, 2020 | Full Review…

In a time when we could all do with something to cheer about The Forty-Year-Old Version throws caution to the kerb, showing that tenacity combined with talent just needs the right streaming platform. October 21, 2020 | Full Review…

With Radha's humorous and relatable bars, 40 Year Old Version 'The Forty Year Old Version' becomes the film of the year for the (aging) awkward Black women like me. We still have dreams and now we just need the confidence to chase them. October 19, 2020 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Writer, director, producer, and star Radha Blank's semi-autobiography of an artist's early midlife crisis is smart and funny and simply great entertainment. I love this f*cking movie! October 19, 2020 | Rating: 9.5/10 | Full Review…

This is a remarkable and wildly entertaining showcase for Blank, who is terrific company whether she's exploding the Magical Negro trope or holed up in her apartment. October 19, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
