Stuart Saves His Family Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Joe Leydon
It isn't good enough, it isn't smart enough, and, doggone it, most people won't like Stuart Saves His Family.
TV Guide
Often funny, darker than you'd expect, and firmly grounded in Franken's extensive experience of the 12-Step worldview.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Even if you find Franken hard to bear, as I do, the movie's take on how he functions in the world is both authoritative and compelling, and the movie steadily grows in stature.
JoBlo's Movie Network
JoBlo
I prepared myself for yet another "one joke" Saturday Night Live movie here, but what I got was an enjoyable little film that actually touched upon some interesting issues...
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
Not as bad as you'd expect
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The plotting is surprisingly banal, involving even talk of a property easement and turning Stuart into the executor of a relative's estate. And the relatives' problems are taken semi-seriously, which is more than this lightweight film can handle.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
There can be no excuse.
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Jeffrey Westhoff
Though it misfires, this spoof of recovery programs should be noted for its sincerity.
Apollo Guide
Scott Weinberg
Better than most SNL flotsam, but surely that's not saying much.
Los Angeles Times
Peter Rainer
It was much funnier when we didn't see Stuart's family. And, if we have to see them, it would have been much funnier if they were strait-laced '50s sitcom types.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I not only enjoyed Stuart Smalley, doggone it, I liked him, and that attitude of gratitude ain't just a platitude.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
All in all, it's a misfire -- but a misfire that's more interesting than a lot of successes.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
Stuart is a disarming figure -- likable in small doses, but fragile and not particularly adaptable.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Subtly riotous.
