Trainwreck | Ratings & Reviews

"As he’s done plenty of times elsewhere, Judd Apatow assists another comic realise their vision with Trainwreck, written by star Amy Schumer and promoting her from one-to-watch to must-watch status. Apatow directs with an almost invisible hand (one notable exception being his inability to deliver a comedy under two hours), leaving Schumer centre-stage throughout to hilariously dissect modern sexual mores, men’s magazines, and, more poignantly, parental/sibling relationships."

"What makes Trainwreck work is that (Schumer) approaches every beat - funny, serious and in-between - in an open, undefended state."

The Washington PostThe Washington Post

"Often extremely funny, even if it never approaches the radicalness of (Schumer's) greatest, most dangerous work."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Raunchy, funny and heartfelt."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"In the way of most Apatow films, Trainwreck is a little too long, a little too shaggy and a little too conservative in insisting that all's square in love and war."

Time MagazineTime Magazine

"At last. Trainwreck drags the romantic comedy kicking and screaming into the late 1950s."

The Irish TimesThe Irish Times

"Its contradictions are obvious but its one consistent quality is its humour."

IndependentIndependent

"Schumer's performance is a tour de force of razor-sharp comedic timing."

Chicago Sun-TimesChicago Sun-Times

"Schumer and Hader are a complete delight..."

NewshubNewshub

"A somewhat shaggy, frequently hilarious romantic comedy..."

VarietyVariety

"The funniest film of the summer — outrageous and out to make you think."

Time OutTime Out

"While there are things to quibble with, there is also so much to like, and Trainwreck is still an important film."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"A surprisingly conservative romantic comedy, based on Schumer's own script of mostly excellent scenes hanging off a very old fashioned girl-meets-boy framework."

StuffStuff

"Isn't quite as good as it should be -- it's baggy and long and loses its nerve in the third act -- it wins fans merely because it exists and for the welcome guffaws it elicits."

SBSSBS

"Interestingly, the movie is actually saved from a very average outcome due to its large and unconventional supporting cast."

Herald SunHerald Sun

"At times it feels as if five different films are going on at once, but Schumer’s whip-smart delivery and no-holds perkiness keeps it all in place. Just as her director wilfully mines his own life for laughs, there is a whole lot of Amy in Amy."
