"It's been a while since this titan of cinema has been given a character with the complexity she deserves, but here's a film that gives Weaver the opportunity to be both hilarious and tragic, in control and spinning completely off course."

"The fun of Sigourney Weaver in directors Wallace Wolodarsky and Maya Forbes’ feature, The Good House, is watching a master actor create an everyday character so believable that she could literally walk into a room and pass as one of us. By the way, everything I said about Weaver equally applies to her co-star Kevin Kline as well."
— Alan Ng, Film Threat
