American Fiction Reviews
I loved this movie. Incredibly funny satire sprinkled with genuinely touching character moments. A must watch.
Absolutely just loved this movie. I'm so loving this type of movie where there is just one huge laugh about the situation but also plenty of laughs throughout. Wonderful writing! Great acting, just a joy throughout!
A movie about racial stereotypes with some edgy humor smuggled in. Nothing more to say. I could not wait for this movie to end.
Entertaining film that is clever and funny with some dramatic scenes pretty early on that keeps you hooked. The ending was well done.
Such a clever film full of wit and warmth. Beautifully written and acted. One of those films where I didn’t want it to end because I wanted to keep living in these made up people’s lives.
Very good satire, sometimes subtle sometimes on the nose. Excellent concept and Jeffrey Wright is brilliant.
Perfect movie. The family drama is rich and affecting, and the comedy is on point. I was laughing out loud, everything about this film is wonderful. I cannot recommend it enough.
The trailer I saw trivialised the movie. It is an excellent, well acted drama that I recommend.
Terrific film. First movie in years that stayed in my mind for a long time afer I watched it. Intelligent, well-acted, and thoughtful. Movie of the year, in my mind.
Expertly done - just the right amount of humor to balance the sharp satire. Fantastic acting from the whole cast.
AMERICAN FICTION effortlessly achieves a brilliant balance between understated character dramedy and large scale social commentary in a way that is consistently entertaining and affecting. That it's about books, and not social media or internet celebrity, makes it all the better.
Really, really really well done!!
It is a masterpiece. I laughed and cried so much. Just brilliant.
Absolute and complete gem on so many levels. It one of rare films thar I know I can watch over and over.
Its kind, cute, and I love the story
With good performances from all sides, a story with interesting social criticism and a perfect soundtrack with plenty of jazz make this an excellent film and deserving of the Oscar it received and its nominations.
I hate this "five star" system. I mean, does this movie deserve my five stars as much as "The Third Man" does? However, I had to give it five stars cause I thought it was brilliant in every way. Biting, true, and brilliantly acted.
Lives up to the hype as something worth watching.
Worth a look. Enjoy.
This is really good. Smartly written, well acted. Biting satire. I wish more movies with a point of view could be this good.
