- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Shelly deftly achieves a tone pitched between fantasy and reality, its levity belying an astute and humane study of an unhappy relationship steeped in inertia."
-
"Though contrived and artificial in ways that don't always work, the film is also heartfelt and made with genuine affection for its characters"
-
"Waitress would stand on its own as a remarkable achievement if you knew absolutely nothing about the woman who made it."
-
"If Waitress was one of Jenna's pies, it would be a sky-high lemon meringue -- light, airy, not too sweet, with a tart, satisfying filling."
-
"Funny, gentle, unpatronising, if occasionally naive and quirky."
