- 70The New York TimesStephen HoldenThe New York TimesStephen HoldenVery well written and acted, Every Day feels like a glorified television drama softened with comic and surreal trimmings.
- 60MovielineMichelle OrangeMovielineMichelle OrangeDisappointingly ordinary film.
- 60New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanNew York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanThere are too many overwritten moments designed solely to make the movie more interesting -- when, in fact, they undercut the low-key relatability that serves as its strongest asset.
- 58Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumEntertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumIt's hard to empathize with the family in the indie drama Every Day when each member is so sitcom-ready.
- 50Village VoiceMelissa AndersonVillage VoiceMelissa AndersonLevine, previously a writer for "Nip/Tuck," sets the bar low, content to work within the shopworn crises, lazy epiphanies, and eye-rolling moments of redemption that have become standard formula in Amerindie family dramedies of the past 20 years.
- 50Los Angeles TimesBetsy SharkeyLos Angeles TimesBetsy SharkeyWhat makes this intriguing, yet woefully uneven film so relatable is that there is nothing about Ned's experience that seems extreme.
- 50ObserverRex ReedObserverRex ReedToo relentlessly depressing to recommend to the everyday audience. It seems to be on automatic pilot. Horrible, sad things keep happening, but it just goes on.
- 42The A.V. ClubScott TobiasThe A.V. ClubScott TobiasAt the movie's center, Schreiber approaches the role with a seriousness that lacks joy or any other colorful inflection.
- 25New York PostKyle SmithNew York PostKyle SmithA 42-minute TV soap has more story than this limp and familiar tale of domestic woe.
