Overview

Ned is in the throes of a mid-life crisis. His work as a writer on an outrageous, semi-pornographic TV show is less than satisfying. His fifteen year old son has just told him he is gay and his eleven year old is afraid of, well pretty much everything. When his wife, Jeannie, moves her sick and embittered father from Detroit into their home in NY, it puts added stress on an already strained marriage. And when a sexy female co-worker puts the moves on Ned, the temptation sends him spiraling.

There are sharp moments throughout.

Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Rotten

It's a recognizable situation that should be easy to sympathize with. Yet the movie makes it hard for most of us to recognize ourselves in this couple or sympathize with their struggles.

Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger

Real life isn't choreographed for maximum impact, it's messy and unpredictable. At its best, so is "Every Day."

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Rotten

A 42-minute TV soap has more story than this limp and familiar tale of domestic woe.

Kyle Smith, New York Post

Very well written and acted, Every Day feels like a glorified television drama softened with comic and surreal trimmings, with a mildly upbeat ending appended.

Stephen Holden, New York Times
