Frances Ha

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Audiences will need to tolerate a certain amount of narrative drift, but thanks to sensitive direction from Noah Baumbach and an endearing performance from Greta Gerwig, Frances Ha makes it easy to forgive.

Kevin Maher Times (UK) [A] sweetly frivolous tale of stony-broke hipsters navigating creative dreams and disappointments in New York City. Rated: 4/5 Jul 7, 2023 Full Review Sarah Mirk Bitch Media A rare and wonderful film that give thanks for friends and revels in life's low times. Jan 15, 2021 Full Review Deborah Ross The Spectator Yes, it is rather kooky, and highly self-conscious... but it's also sweet, endearing, touching, and features proper women you can actually believe in, and who aren't just drippily searching for love, which is something of a novelty. Sep 5, 2018 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Noah Baumbach solidly directs Frances Ha while Greta Gerwig delivers a strong performance in her portrayal of struggling dancer. Rated: 4/5 Dec 27, 2023 Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia A comedy that Baumbach adorns with a notable layer of black and white, but whose dramatic core, in short, becomes routine and terribly superfluous when Gerwig walks aimlessly through the streets of New York to find maturity. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/10 Oct 13, 2023 Full Review Carson Timar ButteredPopcorn Frances Ha is yet another example of Baumbach's talent to explore legitimate emotion regarding the modern human experience; but sadly due to an overall out-of-place character, the film fails to be one of Baumbach's best. Rated: B+ Aug 28, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

mark c 9 this movie is so charming Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Katie Q This movie has deeply relatable moments.I love movies where nothing really happens, yet so much does. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review Spencer P With questionable characters at odds with Noah Baumbach's stylish naturalistic writing and fun editing style, Frances Ha's slice-of-life pace requires a higher intelleigence from its viewers to appreciate. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/24 Full Review Laura N Genuinely brilliant film. Love so many things about it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/24 Full Review Daniel N ‘Frances Ha' unfolds a difficult story to tell in a very funny and absorbing way, Greta Gerwig is just to lovable, impossible not to love her. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/10/23 Full Review Rebecca D This film says something so real and tender and heartbreaking about friendship - about being a single woman in your twenties. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
