Islands in the Stream Ratings & Reviews
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
It has some really good things and plenty of bad. Definitively, it must be watched. [Full review in Spanish]
The Barb (Atlanta)
Steve Warren
The joys of Islands in the Stream are intermittent, but there are enough of them to make the picture worth seeing.
The Times (Shreveport, LA)
Joe Leydon
Islands in the Stream is best when it centers on people instead of plot. The film is blessed with a marvelously literate script (by Denne Bart Petitclerc), and fine actors who bring that script to life.
Los Angeles Free Press
Ruth Batchelor
This semiautobiographical unfinished novel of Papa's, put together by his widow, is the best screen adaptation of any of the Hemingway works.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Islands in the Stream is a big, strong, old-fashioned movie about that threatened species, the Hemingway Hero.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Uneven, but fascinating version of the Hemmingway novel with strong performances.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Explores the anxieties and sorrow of an aging man who's trying to come to terms with his loneliness.
