Reviews
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Tetrady not as good as all the hype
Libramedi Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
vintkd I have always been delighting Arthur Hiller's films and particularly such movies as "See No Evil, Hear No Evil", "Author! Author!" and "Outrageous Fortune". His comedies are kind and timeless and they can raise my mood always. "Married to It" is not typical Hiller's comedy. It's a film about relationships between people, about conceiving of a friendship between strangers, about differences between us and resemblances. It's very vital and clever story, here is very much funny and serious things, that we can to wonder. I very liked characters who play remarkable actors Beau Bridges, Stockard Channing, Robert Sean Leonard and Cybill Shepherd, they are real, charismatic and lovely.
TedMichaelMor I don't know what to make of this movie. Dubbing it into French might help because it superficially resembles films by Éric Rohmer, except that those films celebrate intelligent dialog that contrasts with the contradictory behavior of the protagonists. There is nothing intelligent in the speech of these characters.Further, Rohmer uses movement in his films; this movie moves from set piece to set piece. The cast is terrific but trapped in a bad screen play with indifferent direction. That is a shame because Mr. Hiller directed some splendid films, including the great "The Americanization of Emily", the entertaining "Silver Streak" and the winsome "Romantic Comedy", all well worth seeing. That last film is witty, ironic, and playful the way a Rohmer film is.The children's play around which the story emerges is a splendid interpretation of the enchanting song "The Circle Game" by Joni Mitchell. I wish the rest of the film had that charm. My rating is high because of that sequence.
goomba8 Don't understand why critics hate this movie so much. Great cast, great acting (excluding Cybill Shepard, but what can you do?), and different angles used to show how marriage is different things to different people. As a lifelong bachelor (no, I'm not gay), this movie gave me additional insight into marriages (besides the ones I've observed in real life), and sometimes reflected my experiences I have been through in long term relationships.I really like this movie.
Santiago Stockard Channing is the best actress in this film. Her character (Iris) develops a trajectory during the film: first is the help-line for the rest. Try to solve all the problems that everybody have but her own problem. After, Iris thinks about herself and look for a solution for her situation.The dialogues in the Town Hall party, explaining her feeling and demanding proper attention with "you are f***ing me but never kiss me" are very good. I recommend this film, with romantic but realistic point of view.
