The Seattle TimesSoren AndersenApr 7, 2016
Thanks to Walken’s superlative, multileveled performance and Edwards’ trenchant writing, this complicated guy...is a weirdly beguiling figure. Read full review

The PlaylistKate ErblandMar 13, 2016
It really is charm that drives the feature, with Walken pleasingly zipping around on screen while the rest of the cast gamely rally around him, particularly Heard and Garner, who would likely still be plenty of fun in even a Walken-less feature. Read full review

New York Daily NewsAllen SalkinApr 6, 2016
Walken is great in the tragicomic role of a long-tooth singer. Better still, he deserves a Billboard hit for his on-key — and on-fleeck — version of Joe McGinty’s “When I Live My Life Over Again.” Read full review

Washington PostChristopher KompanekApr 7, 2016
Robert Edwards, the writer and director, explores the layers of melancholy contained within these familiar but authentically drawn characters, and he cleverly doles out virtue and vice to each while weaving in acid humor borne from regret. Read full review

RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyApr 8, 2016
The whole cast (which also includes Oliver Platt as a simpatico family solicitor) sinks its teeth into the material, which is reasonably meaty. Read full review

New York PostLou LumenickApr 7, 2016
Christopher Walken is in top form as Paul Lombard, an aging romantic crooner. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreMar 31, 2016
The unlikely pairing of Amber Heard and Christopher Walken pays comic dividends in One More Time, an agreeably predictable famous father/bitter daughter dramedy. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeMar 13, 2016
Walken is the main attraction here; though the film identifies more with the wayward daughter, played by Amber Heard, it doesn't make her nearly as interesting as his name-dropping, spotlight-hogging entertainer. Read full review

The A.V. ClubNoel MurrayApr 5, 2016
The main reason for anyone to see One More Time...is Walken, who brings a lot of life and fine shading to what could’ve been a one-note deadbeat dad type. Read full review

The Film StageAmanda WaltzApr 27, 2016
The ineffective quality of the music composition rubs off onto the script, a dragging narrative occasionally punctuated with workable humor. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinApr 7, 2016
Many fine small moments pepper the family dramedy One More Time, but they don't add up to a satisfying enough whole. Read full review

The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerApr 7, 2016
This is a story full of people being miserable, humorless and selfish, despite having been given a lot in life, and they’re pretty much the same at the end of it as they were at the beginning. Read full review

Village VoiceSerena DonadoniApr 5, 2016
The characters are overburdened by backstories that constrict rather than inform their behavior. Read full review
