Review For Ruby Sparks |
Sometimes it's worth surrendering to cinematic enchantments, and Ruby Sparks makes a pretty good case for its own magic. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News
Sure it's been done before -- man brings ideal woman to life -- but not quite like Ruby Sparks. And that sets this film up to be a smart and romantic low-key comedy that goes beyond expectations. Linda Barnard-Toronto Star
If the result feels like a Pinocchio story that spends too much time with Geppetto, or a takedown of narcissism that never breaks free of what it's critiquing, Dano nonetheless makes Calvin compelling company. Justin Chang-Variety
Kazan winds up indulging in the very wish-fulfillment she initially sets out to deconstruct. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
Ruby Sparks flirts with preciousness and has less fun with its premise than it could have, but that's because it's actually a gently touching metaphorical drama about the real essence of love. Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly
Ruby Sparks might have been more fun if Cal were written to be expansive instead of a worrywart in the middle-aged Matthew Broderick mode. David Edelstein-New York Magazine
Ruby Sparks feels like the best Woody Allen movie Woody Allen never made. Norman Wilner-NOW Toronto
Screenwriter/actress Kazan's theory seems to have been that if she's going to write herself a part, she might as well make it a crackerjack one. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press
Even with the draggy pacing, though, the actors and the central idea are so good that Dayton and Faris never lose us completely. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide
It tackles the idea that people in a relationship will often try to remake the other person in their image. Some of the twists are more obvious than others, but it has just enough charm (mostly from Kazan herself) to skate by. Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com
It may be directed by the pair that gave us "Little Miss Sunshine," but what makes this one work is writer Zoe Kazan, who doubles as the female lead. James Plath-Movie Metropolis
far too derivative of other angsty independent romances that it failed to keep my attention Kevin Carr-7M Pictures
Displaying a self-confidence that would put Muhammad Ali to shame, Kazan has cast herself as her real-life boyfriend's fantasy woman. Andy Lea-Daily Star
A sprightly, slightly twisted take on the romcom genre. James White-SFX Magazine
The movie's funny for the first half-hour. But thereafter it stumbles like someone trying to find their way out of a hall of mirrors. Philip French-Observer [UK]
The picture offers worrying commentary on male stereotypes of femininity and on the gender's domineering tendencies. Donald Clarke-Irish Times
[B]arely distinguishable from other similar tales of young men who need a schooling in the realities of not being a selfish jerk, with one glaring exception: ... this one is all about teaching Calvin that -- spoiler! -- women are people. MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
While lesser filmmakers would merely utilise such a premise as an excuse for quirky, whimsical rom-com antics, here it's used to say something worthwhile about relationships. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
A romantic comedy with a dark twist, this film gets under the skin as it knowingly explores both the writing process and the nature of relationships. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
Both fresh and fun. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
