Brad's Status

« Even if Brad’s whiny, he’s not an unpleasant guy to spent a movie with, and it ranks as one of Stiller’s better recent films. »

« As dad obsessed with his son's college applications, Stiller gives 'one of his best' performances in Mike White's smart 'high-anxiety satire'. »

« Does the world need another Ben-Stiller-as-malcontent-white-man movie? When it's as sharp a satire as writer-director Mike White has made, absolutely! »

« As for Stiller, Brad’s discomfort seems so deep inside his comfort zone that I don’t know what I think of the performance — except that it gave me the creepy-crawlies. »

« Son film aux lignes simples, au propos limpide et bien articulé, s'inscrit parfaitement dans son oeuvre, ainsi que dans la tradition du cinéma américain indépendant représenté au présent par les Noah Baumbach, Lynn Shelton et autres Nicole Holofcener. »

« TIFF 2017: Writer-director Mike White fashions another compassionate satire around middle class anxiety. »

« Brad’s Status might be the most Ben Stillerish movie Ben Stiller has ever made, and that’s actually a good thing. »
