CRITICS OF "Life as a House"

Film Quips Online

Thank goodness there are actors capable of delivering performances better than the scripts they're given. Too bad there aren't more of them in this movie.

February 08, 2003

Resource

ReelViews

The movie gets us to feel about the characters, their relationships, and their circumstances, and that goes a long way towards allowing us to forgive the screenplays' occasional mis-steps and wrong turns.

November 27, 2001

EmanuelLevy.Com

This father-son melodrama is well acted, but it's too solemn and too concerned with being inspirational

June 02, 2011

Resource

Orlando Sentinel

Kline never lets the soap-opera implications get the better of him.

November 01, 2001

Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY)

Remember the movie Terms of Endearment, about a mother-daughter relationship, a terminal illness and a message about not taking people for granted?

June 25, 2004

Resource

Common Sense Media

Uneven but moving story of reconcilliation.

December 25, 2010

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

...the people who assembled Life as a House imagined it as a kind of American Beauty for the slightly more-literal-minded, for those who hated or felt baffled that film will likely like and apprehend this one.

October 30, 2002

Billings Outpost (Montana)

Life as a House is no cinematic masterpiece but it stays with you.

November 26, 2002

Denver Post

House may suffer from excessive and unnecessary ornamentation, but its foundation -- Kline's performance -- is solid and strong.

November 02, 2001

Resource

Globe and Mail

Gauged strictly by the gag-factor, a more honest title might be Life as a Basement Apartment with Bad Light and a Dank Smell.

March 19, 2002

Resource

Seattle Times

Life as a House reaches easily past all your intellectual and emotional barriers, back into that spot behind your heart, where the levers that release tears are stored.

November 02, 2001

Resource

Detroit Free Press

There's a prefab construction to Life as a House that prevents it from acquiring the emotional solidness it needs to stand out.
