Empire
It may not have Lost In Translation's reach, but it's original and smartly funny with top performances.

Variety
The ever-perceptive writer-director further hones her gifts for ruefully funny observation and understated melancholy with this low-key portrait of a burned-out screen actor.
75
Chicago Tribune
A small but, in its way, daring picture.
70
Boxoffice Magazine
A clearly personal effort, Somewhere demonstrates Coppola's featherweight touch with big subjects like identity and human connection.

The Hollywood Reporter
After her foray into historical costumers with "Marie Antoinette," Sofia Coppola makes a happy return to "Lost in Translation" territory in the cutback charmer Somewhere, which illuminates the emptiness of a movie star's life in Los Angeles through close observation and gentle irony.

Time Out
The difference between a movie about emptiness and an empty movie becomes abundantly clear.

Boston Globe
I can't say why Coppola wanted to spend time with this man. It's like following someone on Twitter who fails to generate many compelling tweets.

Time
Somewhere has a lot of good impulses, and a salutary faith in an audience's patience; but the film's tone, in its script, performances and visual style, is studiously uninflected. It's a document of people seen remotely, maybe from outer space.
