ObserverRex ReedOct 21, 2024
There’s no way to avoid the resemblances of this film to one of Keaton’s biggest past successes, Mr. Mom, but it’s consistently more intelligent and original. Read full review

The New York TimesAmy NicholsonOct 17, 2024
Keaton’s an old pro at getting audiences to love a well-intentioned jerk, and the script gets good chuckles out of his inconsiderate attempts at generosity. Read full review

Goodrich is the type of rewatchable adult-minded comedy that feels like a welcome sight. Read full review

Original-CinChris KnightOct 18, 2024
The film, alas, feels far more emotionally conniving than its title character. Read full review

IndieWireDavid EhrlichOct 18, 2024
Nothing about it feels the least bit real, but nothing about it feels dishonest either. Read full review

Slant MagazineCharles Lyons-BurtOct 17, 2024
Goodrich is a moving and warmly humanist story of a vaguely unseemly, mostly harmless guy trying to be a better person. Read full review

Screen RantAlex HarrisonOct 18, 2024
As a story of parental reckoning, Goodrich lacks the interrogative instinct of something like Sofia Coppola's On the Rocks, and it rushes Grace's catharsis as a result. But as a story of a man's late-stage awakening, it strikes a more resonant chord. Read full review

We all know a feel-good ending is coming eventually. But more patience, and fewer clichés, might have made its emotions feel more earned. Read full review

ColliderShawn Van HornOct 17, 2024
In the moment it works, and despite its flaws, Goodrich is just more proof of how good we've got it that we get to witness an actor like Michael Keaton. Read full review

New York Magazine (Vulture)Alison WillmoreOct 21, 2024
Watching Goodrich isn’t like playing tourist in an upscale world — it’s more like stepping into the head of someone whose sense of normal is wildly different from your own. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreOct 18, 2024
There’s nothing about “Goodrich” that would scare producers away from working with a filmmaker whose only goal might be to become “Nancy Meyers: The Next Generation,” even if there’s little original to lure them in either. Read full review

Paste MagazineJesse HassengerOct 21, 2024
[Keaton] has the kind of presence that makes you sit up and pay a little more attention to whatever he’s saying, and his restless, punchy manner is unsentimental enough to sell sappy material, even as he appears to sidestep it. Goodrich ultimately requires more sidestepping than one man can handle. Read full review
