Philadelphia InquirerCarrie Rickey
There is much of interest in Baumbach's pictures - the confident handling of actors, the introspection, the terra-cotta and teal-painted walls. But what do you call a comedy of manners that's not particularly funny? [19 June 1998, p.04]

New Orleans Times-PicayuneDavid Baron
Disappointingly, all of "Jealousy's" promising narrative turns go nowhere. [3 July 1998, p.L28]
