Review For The Sessions
Thanks to Lewin's light but assured touch, The Sessions never wears its theological preoccupations heavily, instead allowing transcendence to creep up on the audience quietly. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post A very different kind of love story, breaking taboos lightly, with sensitivity and humor. Tom Charity-CNN.com Achieves its sunny disposition by pulling punches. Ian Buckwalter-The Atlantic A funny, tender and mostly unsentimentalized movie about physical and emotional triumph. Rafer Guzman-Newsday An absolute delight. Tom Long-Detroit News Forced to do all his acting with his face, Hawkes displays the kind of camera-arresting capability that has earned others Oscar nominations. James Berardinelli-ReelViews For the most part, an authentically subversion take on fringe sexuality. Charlie Lyne-Ultra Culture The Sessions belongs completely to Hawkes, who disappears into the role of Mark O'Brien, delivering a stunning performance that illuminates what it means to be a whole person. Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman This is one of the best, and certainly one of the best-acted, films of the year. I can't think of another film that mixed compassion and carnality in such an eloquent way. Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI) The laughs are always gentle, which is descriptive of the film as a whole, as it strives to reconnect cinematic sex with shared humanity. James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk Vera is something of a missed opportunity here. Cynthia Fuchs-PopMatters A movie about sex that shows a whole lot of sex, but isn't sex-obsessed. The Sessions grabs you in the heart rather than the loins. Christopher Lloyd-Sarasota Herald-Tribune An inspiring tale that celebrates the human spirit, underscores the value of connections, and laughs at the beautifully embarrassing urges that make us what we are. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune Deeply moving. The Oscar-worthy (John) Hawkes invests his character with a sense of grace and humor that nullifies any potential pity. This is a great movie for adults and even for older adolescents. Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest It is rare to watch a movie where sex is treated with maturity, religion is treated with respect and characters are so heart-warmingly written and portrayed. Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews Raw, unrestrained and sympathetic without giving in to melodrama, 'The Sessions' is about a man facing a physical challenge who decides he wants to become intimate with a woman. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) An intelligent, funny, insightful film that offers a frank examination of sex. It's not prurient or titillating, just truthful. Mike McGranaghan-Aisle Seat A remarkable actor, John Hawkes, gives a remarkable performance as a remarkable character. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope Surprisingly funny and touching. John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) Presents the sensitive O'Brien as a brave, funny, unselfish and unlikely romantic-fantasy dream hero for disappointed, weary or jaded older female moviegoers. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) The uplifting struggle for living a life of dignity for paralyzed from the neck down polio victim Mark O'Brien. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews The sex scenes are frank and explicit, but never cheap and exploitative. (Yes, they get naked. Grow up.) The nudity isn't airbrushed pin-up perfection, but raw and real - and all the more lovely and moving because of it. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune Taking the good with the bad, this isn't a terrible movie, though it is being rather overhyped. I found myself laughing a lot and enjoying the transformations the actors go through, but an unengaging story only serves to drag it down. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
