Girl Most Likely movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Manohla Dargis, New York Times: It's impossible not to root for Kristen Wiig, even while you wait in vain for the funny to pop in her latest. Read more
Rex Reed, New York Observer: Nobody in this movie is really appealing enough to be much fun. The state of New Jersey should sue. Read more
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: Unfortunately, it's just not funny enough ... Read more
A.A. Dowd, AV Club: Girl Most Likely builds to a climax of such monumental stupidity that it destroys whatever slim pretense of realism the film has heretofore established. Read more
Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic: There is a trick to playing downtrodden, borderline-pathetic characters without putting off the audience. Kristen Wiig has mastered it. Read more
Ty Burr, Boston Globe: It means well and everyone appears to be having a good time, but so many things are wrong with the film, from a limp script to slack editing that leaves entire scenes hanging. Read more
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader: This one seems a little determined in its quirkiness, assigning its characters one gag apiece. Read more
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor: This film suffers, as you can guess from this precis, from quirky-overload. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: It's funny and pleasant and comfy enough. But reach, Kristen, reach. Read more
Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly: Wiig didn't write the script for Girl Most Likely, but surely all those years of making tangy lemonade from the SNL writing staff's lemons must have given her the chops to do more than she manages to do here. What a shame. Read more
Wesley Morris, Grantland: Berman and Pulcini -- American Splendor, The Nanny Diaries -- found a tone somewhere between tragedy and nonsense. Read more
Glenn Whipp, Los Angeles Times: Somewhere in this overstuffed mix, there's probably a good movie about a woman's journey to self-discovery and self-acceptance. Read more
Connie Ogle, Miami Herald: Girl Most Likely is a case of good actors in serious need of worthwhile material. Read more
Richard Brody, New Yorker: Kristen Wiig's comic artistry and its melodramatic tinge are squandered in this frenetic, schematic comedy, which also lays waste to a fertile premise. Read more
Ella Taylor, NPR: [Wiig] might want to consider whether she really wants to get stuck unto eternity playing women on the verge. Read more
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News: Like Imogene's early promise, "Girl Most Likely" is likely to be forgotten quickly. The sooner the better. Read more
Sara Stewart, New York Post: I only laughed once ... Read more
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer: Flat and mostly unsurprising. Read more
Richard Roeper, Richard Roeper.com: Another movie about a woman falling into a deep funk because some narcissistic twit dumped her. Read more
Christy Lemire, RogerEbert.com: Wiig finds herself sadly outmatched in this comedy crammed with wacky and tacky characters-types, all of them-in which she's stuck functioning as the uptight, frustrated straight woman in the middle. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: "Girl Most Likely" is a strange movie, in that it has the atmosphere of a comedy and some extreme characters set up to be comical, but there are really no funny scenes. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Something is wrong when the wardrobe gets bigger laughs than the dialogue. Read more
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail: There are moments to make you honestly wish it were a better movie, and that the semi-autobiographical screenplay by Michelle Morgan didn't feel so much like a first draft. Read more
Bruce Demara, Toronto Star: Once you get past Imogene's insufferableness, you'll find yourself rooting for her. Read more
Alonso Duralde, TheWrap: The kind of movie destined to become the answer to the rhetorical question, "With a cast this good, how bad can it be?" Read more
Sam Adams, Time Out: Bening flaps her arms like a baby bird and Dillon takes his There's Something About Mary sleaze down off the shelf, but their game supporting performances can't prop up screenwriter Michelle Morgan's prefab-to-a-fault script. Read more
Nick Schager, Village Voice: Less funny than her worst SNL sketch, Girl Most Likely strands Kristen Wiig in a dreadful, disingenuous city-vs.-suburbs comedy ... Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Kristen Wiig delivers another adorkable star turn in 'Girl Most Likely,' which works until it doesn't. Read more
