Personal Velocity Ratings & Reviews
Newsweek
David Ansen
Miller is a witty and socially acute observer; the three portraits in "Personal Velocity" are told with both novelistic richness and brisk, confident economy.
Chicago Reader
Richard Porton
This uneven triptych features flawed female heroines whose woes are attributable to unstable or bland male partners and simple bad luck.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Story about life's turning points is not for kids.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
This beautifully realized film retains the essential qualities of short fiction: precision, compactness, a focus on epiphanic moments.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
These are complex characters.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
It accumulates small details that gradually create a feeling of narrative intimacy.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
Three exquisite boutique films whose impact is much larger than many movies five times their size.
Slate
David Edelstein
If the movie is finally stuck halfway been cinema and prose, Miller proves that it's not an unfertile place to linger.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Redeemed by the fine performances and by the moody and effective digital photography of Ellen Kuras.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Has a special, original urgency.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
A terrific film.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Those wondering if movies still have power to shock need only watch the first few minutes of Rebecca Miller's lovely, free-swinging film Personal Velocity.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
A hit-and-miss affair.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
My thoughts were focused on the characters. That is a compliment to Kuras and Miller. If I had been thinking about the visual medium, they would have been doing something wrong.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Velocity represents everything wrong with ''independent film'' as a commodified, sold-out concept on the American filmmaking scene.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
Boasts the finest female ensemble of the year.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Keenly observed triptych.
Chicago Tribune
Mark Caro
Taken individually or collectively, the stories never add up to as much as they promise.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
I read the short stories by Rebecca Miller, and she did a wonderful job of bringing these stories to the screen.
Salon.com
Jeff Stark
In a way, it plays like a dated feminist tract, one of those works that wants to show women making tough decisions and being emotionally resilient, but is at root about them being screwed over by men.
