Levinson piles on the anguish with such abandon he never convinces you that these people would ever speak to each other, much less live under the same roof.

Combines some of the stock elements of a family film with an extra something - a go-for-the-jugular quality, a kind of Ingmar Bergman-like honesty and viciousness that brings it up a notch.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

"Another Happy Day" becomes increasingly difficult to watch, despite its intelligence and strong cast. You wish this family well, but you're grateful to see the last of them.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Rotten
Sam Levinson has proven that he can get a movie made. Good for him. But he still has to prove that he has a story to tell.
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Rotten
If you liked Rachel Getting Married or Margot at the Wedding, you probably have good taste, so you should avoid this one.
