What the Critics say | ||
Cape Argus / The Star Diane de Beer In the end, it is sadly, almost grimly, funny... | 10 | |
Die Burger Laetitia Pople 'n Kalm, ingehoue komedie oor roem binne die Hollywood-konteks, en wat dit aan 'n mens kan doen. | 15 | |
Cape Times Carina Chocano Bleak Oscar satire not as inspired as past efforts. | 10 | |
iAfrica.com Rebekah Kendal The attempt at satire falls horribly flat and the movie simply fizzles out where it should crackle delightfully. | 8 | |
Mail & Guardian Shaun de Waal | 12 | |
The Citizen Sabrina Dean For Your Consideration is a clever, funny, satirical look at the movie industry machine and the blazing fever of anticipation before Oscar nominees are announced. | 14 | |
24.com Alistair Fairweather The svengali of satire, Christopher Guest, takes aim at his juiciest target yet — Hollywood. The results are as painful as they are funny. | 10 | |
