KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

studioAT As an attempt to make a modern screwball comedy this film is to be applauded, but while it has its moments, and a very strong cast, I can't say I ever found it to be as funny or entertaining as it was intended to be.Owen Wilson does his 'Mr nice guy' act that we've seen many, many times before, and Imogen Poots' accent got on my nerves after a while, as did the constant linking device with her being interviewed.It does boast a performance from Jennifer Aniston that's a bit different from what we're used to, and the always welcome sight of Rhys Ifans, but other than that this was quite standard, unexceptional entertainment.

HotToastyRag For the life of me, I can't figure out why this film was titled She's Funny That Way, but the odd title notwithstanding, this is one funny movie! It isn't funny in a modern way, either; it feels like a 1930s screwball comedy. Gone are the days when movies rely solely on verbal banter, but Peter Bogdanovich has created a classic for today's audiences.The film alternates between the actual story and Imogen Poots's character's interview from after the story's end. I don't happen to think Poots is very pretty look at on the screen, but there's nothing wrong with her acting or her very thick, adorable New York accent. Included in the fast-paced story is a cast of colorful characters including a womanizing playwright, a hooker with a heart of gold, and an incompetent therapist. Set in New York, with quick, clever dialogue, this film reminds me of a Woody Allen movie. Even Poots's over-the-top accent sounds like Allen coached her. So if you like his movies, you'll like this one. If you like classics, you'll like this one. If you like clever humor, well, you'll like this one. It's funny that way, you know?

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a call girl who becomes a successful actress. She recounts her journey from meeting a patron, to an eventful audition then meeting her true love. I simply cannot believe how funny "She's Funny That Way" is! The story is about eight interconnected individuals whom all have something to hide. As their secrets unfold, drama and hilarity ensues. The quick pacing and wordy dialogue reminds me of Woody Allen films. The constant appearances of familiar faces, even for tiny roles such as a security guard in a department store, or a call girl who gets lost in the hotel, makes the film even more fun to watch. I laughed out loud many times. I really enjoyed it.

Lee Eisenberg Peter Bogdanovich was one of the directors who came about in the late '60s to early '70s whose movies signaled the new direction that cinema would take. Unlike most of the directors, Bogdanovich incorporated nostalgia in his work. "Targets" cast Boris Karloff as an aging horror star; "The Last Picture Show" looked at the changes in a small town; "What's Up, Doc?" was a remake of "Bringing Up Baby"; "Paper Moon" focused on the Depression.Bogdanovich continues this pattern with "She's Funny That Way", about an assortment of people involved in the production of a play. It references the old screwball comedies. It's not a masterpiece, but the mixture of comedy and relatable characters make it worth the while. Bogdanovich loosely references some of his own work by casting Cybill Shepherd in a supporting role and Tatum O'Neal in a cameo (there's an even more surprising cameo at the end).An OK movie.
