Writers DeClue and Kazurinsky have created a recognizable geography for every age; you suspect that About Last Night will set off pangs of identification everywhere.

Homework assignment: Is the decision to change both the title and the thrust of Mamet's play evidence of perversity or of perversion? Due tomorrow. Class dismissed.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten
The shocks of recognition are largely absorbed by the standard narrative structure that replaces Mamet's blackouts; the characters, instead of functioning as archetypes, look underwritten, half alive.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader

This is the yuppie drama that St. Elmo`s Fire wanted to be but wasn't.
Gene Siskel, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
Film lacks much of Mamet's grittiness, but is likable in its own right.
