Critics' reviews

"Few films capture with such life-affirming wonder the despair, hatred, and incomprehension that drives the sexes together and apart."

Richard Brody: The New Yorker
"It is almost unbearably long. It is a narrative film without any real narrative, and although it is a movie about three characters, those characters are seen almost exclusively in terms of their limiting relationship."

Vincent Canby: The New York Times
"This 1970 film is John Cassavetes's most irritating, full of the male braggadocio and bluster that mar even some of his best work. But it's impossible to dismiss or shake off entirely."

Jonathan Rosenbaum: Chicago Reader
"John Cassavetes' Husbands is disappointing in the way Antonioni's Zabriskie Point was. It shows an important director not merely failing, but not even understanding why. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
"If Cassavetes' hipster cine-language has lost a little of its age and the innovative improv style won't be for everyone, the themes he tackles, riffed by a masterful group of actors, remain enthralling."

David Parkinson: Empire
"Unyielding and underdeveloped, like a semi-interesting draft for something John Updike decided against writing."

Tim Robey: Telegraph
"Cassavetes was a masterful anti-Hollywood director who probed human failings until he reached right under the skin."

Derek Malcolm: London Evening Standard
