Critic Reviews

Jonathan Rosenbaum

John Zorn's ethnically tinged score is effectively minimalist without succumbing to Philip Glass-style monotony, and Harris Yulin is effective as the hero's semi-estranged father. Read full review

Michael Phillips

Janssen is an intense screen presence. Too often she's stuck playing humorless towering antagonists. Here, happily, she's allowed to be a real person. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

The film is a pleasant breeze that refreshes, mostly because it's a rare, thoughtful comedy clearly intended for grown-ups. Read full review

Frank Scheck

Best of all is Holm, who is consistently hilarious as the sarcastic shrink from hell. Read full review

Anthony Lane

A slight and rueful affair, intermittently funny. Read full review

Wesley Morris

The Treatment fails to do anything interesting with Jake. Read full review

Kyle Smith

A wan effort at "Annie Hall"-style comedy, has about as much Manhattan sophistication as a gas station in Chippewa Falls, Wis. Read full review
