The Intervention's familiar plot is enlivened by complex character dynamics and a likable cast.

Despite her script's omissions - we learn little about where these affluent people come from, their occupations or how they know one another - Ms. DuVall juggles the emotional dynamics with fluid editing and light comic touches. Aug 30, 2016 | Full Review…

The script wobbles between heavy-handed and touching, but the result is a pleasantly nostalgic throwback that's saved from its copy-cat tendencies by charismatic actors. Aug 26, 2016 | Rating: B | Full Review…

If DuVall's purpose was to provide a snapshot of her generation, she should have sharpened her focus. Aug 26, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

As an unfussy, dryly amusing and sincere look at men and women pondering emotional pivots in their lives, it's plenty likable. Aug 25, 2016 | Full Review…

Wanders from scene to scene until arriving at some pretty implausible conflict resolution. Aug 25, 2016 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

It's more engrossing to just hang out with the characters in all their damaged glory, before the plot marches through the room with its clunkiest boots on. Aug 25, 2016 | Full Review…

While the performances are great across the board, The Intervention falls flat in its narrative, which feels entirely too cookie cutter and predictable. May 1, 2019 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review…

While there isn't anything particularly original about the core plot, the dramatic and comedic beats, as well as the character depth, make for a well-executed and mature film that manages to be enjoyable and thoughtful. Apr 5, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

You can see the plot beats coming a mile away, and although this is a fun film it never delivers anything as outrageous or emotional as one might hope. Apr 2, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Despite the set-up, the tone is lightweight seriocomic and everybody gets a resolution for their problems one way or another. Feb 21, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's a briskly entertaining little movie that is almost single handedly carried by an astounding performance by Melanie Lynskey. Oct 31, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The Intervention may not break new ground but manages a humor and pathos in a wonderfully observant female-driven dramedy (both in front of and behind the camera) with something for everyone. Aug 27, 2018 | Full Review…
