Reaction: Historically, each season will have a few surprise hits, but not this season. The season is almost over and the only hit films have been pretty obvious blockbusters. We were hoping that with a cast like this, that it would have some breakout potential.
"The cast and their solid performances successfully evoke a feeling of complacency, creating what should turn out to be a worthwhile cultural artifact." - Henry Stewart, Chicago Sun-Times
"It has the right actors. It has all the right words. Its characters have the right clothes, the right problems, fears, ambitions, but there is not much of a payoff and ultimately goes nowhere." - Madison Bennett, Vanity Fair
"Greta Gerwig doesn't show any growth as a director following her debut, but she thankfully has several actors who can practically direct themselves, all she has to do is point the camera toward them. Missoula is worth watching simply for those actors." - Jon Farrell, Hollywood Reporter
