This road movie romcom won’t leave you reaching for the razor blades.March 25, 2008
Wristcutters: A Love Story is like a suicidal Wizard of Oz.November 08, 2007
Wristcutters is a small film of ambitions nicely scaled to the performances and story. Who knew that affectless characters could be so oddly affecting?November 23, 2007
It is a staggeringly awful road movie, not much enlivened by the presence of Tom Waits as a wizened participant.November 02, 2007
All this sounds rather grim, and indeed it is -- but this backward Heaven Can Wait is also, thanks to [director] Dukic's inventive imagination, surprisingly involving and ultimately sweet.November 22, 2007
Opportunities to comment on the ethical grey areas of suicide are mostly squandered and, as the pointless digressions begin to pile up, your mind begins to drift from the action on screen.November 02, 2007
Wristcutters is a cut above most low-budget American indies, with something original to say about the human condition and an artful way of saying it.November 06, 2007
It's such an original piece of work and I love the deliberately bleak cinematography.June 10, 2008
Having some laughs over suicide.November 23, 2007
The purgatorial premise is pleasingly eccentric but, in the end, Wristcutters falls victim to its washed-out mood, and limps bloodlessly to a close.February 22, 2008
It misses the opportunity to examine why a community of people - each of whom has already given up on life - would band together to form a new society of desperate misfits.March 06, 2008
It's certainly melancholic, occasionally funny, and ultimately life-affirming. But overall, it feels as if writer-director Goran Dukic dropped a rather promising ball.
