The A.V. Club
Though Davis makes Tully convincing both as a human being and as a mysterious godsend, it’s Theron whose work is absolutely vital to Tully’s success. - 83
The Playlist
Reitman is often at his best when he can join forces with an exceptional actor, and Theron once again helps with the heavy lifting. - 83
Entertainment Weekly
Tully feels like the work of a writer who’s matured and lived and become less superficial without giving up any of her natural gift for finding humor in the absurd. - 80
The Guardian
It’s a marvellous movie about the lies we tell ourselves to stay sane—and the reasons why we might need to tell the truth. - 80
The Hollywood Reporter
The often-very-funny picture entertains while affording its characters their share of no-laughing-matter concerns. - 80
Screen Daily
Theron will put to rest any doubts about her feel for comedy; the darker the better.... As Tully, Mackenzie Davis is radiant. - 75
IndieWire
Theron and Davis are dynamite together, the actresses playing off each other like two sides of the same coin. - 70
