	Media	Author	Review
		David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"For people who enjoyed Wilson's book, this faithful adaptation will be a welcome reminder of its 'beautiful spontaneity,' (...) And for those unfamiliar with it, the film will provide reasons to seek it out"
		Nikola Grozdanovic IndieWire	"A funny, sensitive, and layered piece of work (...) Kidman, Walken, and Bateman are particularly terrific"
		Justin Chang Variety	"Jason Bateman proves that 'Bad Words' was no fluke with this sharp and affecting dysfunctional-family portrait"
		Steve Pond The Wrap	the film is a sometimes awkward but often winning family story that veers between dramatic scenes (...) and the eccentric comic stylings of Christopher Walken, who steals every scene"
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Jason Bateman has an affinity for directing. He and Kidman make a potent team in a provocative film that questions the limits of art in a world that forgets to be human (...) Rating: ★★★1/4 (out of four)"
		Kyle Smith New York Post	"'The Family Fang’ feels like a long therapy session (...) The film — directed with a wounded somberness by Bateman — has an admirable ability to debate itself (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"
