	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"An admirable idea in theory proves to be a real slog to sit through."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Another great success for the endlessly creative and productive Winterbottom. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Robbie Collin Telegraph	"For all its innovativeness, 'Everyday' has the rhythms and intrigue of a not-very-interesting family's Christmas letters. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Stephen Holden The New York Times	"Moment by moment, it all adds up. The scenes of the family huddling and hugging, greeting and parting, and reaffirming primal bonds are quietly moving."	POS
United Kingdom	Matthew Turner View London	"It's ultimately let down by its resolutely minimalist approach to both plot and dialogue. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"'Everyday' lacks the cautionary cliches we’ve come to expect from the genre"	POS
United States	Rodrigo Perez IndieWire	"At two hours, the picture is slow paced with again, seemingly minor stakes, but Winterbottom’s composure pays off in emotionally rewarding dividends"	NEU
United States	Mike D'Angelo AV Club	"[Winterbottom] seems genuinely and pointlessly committed to keeping 'Everyday' as uninteresting as humanly possible"	NEG
