The New York TimesStephen HoldenJan 13, 2011
Very well written and acted, Every Day feels like a glorified television drama softened with comic and surreal trimmings. Read full review

Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerJan 22, 2011
Too often the sequences in this movie play out like snatches from a terrific play that somehow got lost along the way. Read full review

New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanJan 14, 2011
There are too many overwritten moments designed solely to make the movie more interesting -- when, in fact, they undercut the low-key relatability that serves as its strongest asset. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumJan 12, 2011
It's hard to empathize with the family in the indie drama Every Day when each member is so sitcom-ready. Read full review

Slant MagazineHenry StewartFeb 23, 2018
Throughout, the film raises metaphysical issues of physical and psychological autonomy only to gloss over them. Read full review

ObserverRex ReedJan 13, 2011
Too relentlessly depressing to recommend to the everyday audience. It seems to be on automatic pilot. Horrible, sad things keep happening, but it just goes on. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesBetsy SharkeyJan 13, 2011
What makes this intriguing, yet woefully uneven film so relatable is that there is nothing about Ned's experience that seems extreme. Read full review

Village VoiceMelissa AndersonJan 11, 2011
Levine, previously a writer for "Nip/Tuck," sets the bar low, content to work within the shopworn crises, lazy epiphanies, and eye-rolling moments of redemption that have become standard formula in Amerindie family dramedies of the past 20 years. Read full review

The A.V. ClubScott TobiasJan 13, 2011
At the movie's center, Schreiber approaches the role with a seriousness that lacks joy or any other colorful inflection. Read full review

Boxoffice MagazineMatthew NestelJan 17, 2011
Auds will be wise to the contrived metaphors and realize there's not much going on below the surface except stock discourse. Read full review

Time OutAndrew SchenkerJan 11, 2011
Levine's dramedy not only gives Ned's middle-class crises a static, by-the-numbers treatment, it also feels compelled to adopt a ridiculously righteous moral tone. Read full review

New York PostKyle SmithJan 14, 2011
A 42-minute TV soap has more story than this limp and familiar tale of domestic woe. Read full review
