With typically sharp work from writer-director Nicole Holofcener and finely layered performances, The Land of Steady Habits is one mid-life crisis worth watching.

A great actor when his motor is running fast, Mendelsohn is surprisingly attractive at slower speeds and better when Holofcener makes him twist. September 18, 2018 | Full Review…

Laying it all out with a piercing authenticity, Holofcener makes us hope that the wait till her next feature is not quite so long. September 13, 2018 | Full Review…

The decision to spend a little time on a lot of different characters results in a splintered story that muddles - rather then clarifies - its protagonist's roundabout journey back to himself. September 13, 2018 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Really bad decisions are made, people lie, no one convincingly grows. Lest this be taken as biting commentary, the music, stilted dialogue and epilogue assure us it's in earnest. September 13, 2018 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

As the tone wobbles between absurdity and tragedy, it also starts to shift toward something deeper and more bittersweet than mere midlife ennui. September 13, 2018 | Rating: B | Full Review…

No detail ever seems to go unnoticed in Holofcener's world, and viewers could spend the entire running time simply admiring her powers of surveillance. September 13, 2018 | Full Review…

[A]side from its technical fluency and a typically effortless performance from Ben Mendelsohn, this self-pity party feels a decade too late. July 25, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Characters spend most of their time wandering through grocery stores and wine depots. None of it gets satirized as hard as it should. January 29, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

I like this movie. It is dark, but it also has a lot of humor in it. It also has the benefit of having characters capable of a bit of very unlikely redemption. February 4, 2019 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Holofcener is right to call it "a sad, small story," as beyond the warm performances the constant thrum of moneyed self-indulgence occasionally palls... January 8, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
