Janice Beard Ratings & Reviews
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
we don't care much what happens to Janice
Observer
Andrew Sarris
All ends well, sort of, but the frenzied comic moments never click.
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
A poignant coming-of-age story about a young woman never embittered by her shortcomings, or by the imperfections of those she loves.
New York Post
Megan Turner
It's impossible to indulge the fanciful daydreams of Janice Beard (Eileen Walsh) when her real-life persona is so charmless and vacant.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
As Janice, Eileen Walsh, an engaging, wide-eyed actress whose teeth are a little too big for her mouth, infuses the movie with much of its slender, glinting charm.
Boxoffice Magazine
Ed Scheid
A clever script and skilled actors bring new energy to the familiar topic of office politics.
Newsday
Jan Stuart
Walsh can't quite negotiate the many inconsistencies in Janice's behavior or compensate for them by sheer force of charm.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
The plot's contrivances are uncomfortably strained.
New Times
Robert Wilonsky
Director Clare Kilner's debut is never as daft as it should have been.
Village Voice
Ed Park
If the heroine's forced wackiness hinders believability, at least the energetic Walsh makes her entertaining.
Apollo Guide
Jon Lap
Where Janice Beard falters in its recycled aspects, implausibility, and sags in pace, it rises in its courageousness, and comedic employment.
