Hitfix
If you’re wondering whether you’ll believe Streep is a convincing rock musician, please. It’s Meryl Streep here. She sounds like she’s ready to open for Bruce Springsteen. - 75
IndieWire
When Ricki and the Flash pierces its conventional trajectory with music, it gets more interesting. But the fluff surrounding it holds together well enough. - 70
Screen Daily
A breezy but touching dysfunctional family dramedy, with real heart and some genuine musical soul. - 67
Entertainment Weekly
Director Jonathan Demme and screenwriter Diablo Cody, both Oscar winners, have made far better films. Still, Ricki raises smart questions about why a mother’s musical ambitions are so much more selfish than, say, seven-time dad Mick Jagger’s. - 60
The Hollywood Reporter
Even with its well-observed moments, the movie’s nonmusical interactions, whether reaching for laughs or poignancy, too often feel flat and forced. - 60
Variety
This is a shaggy, easily distractible film that consistently defies expectations to both charming and baffling effect. - 60
The Guardian
Ricki and the Flash’s emotional intensity creeps up on you, and it’s all due to the performances. Everyone’s sympathetic, everyone’s got depth. - 60
Village Voice
Demme's film plays out like a catnapping afternoon dream. We recognize the world, yet the logic is screwy.
