The Good Girl

Seriously funny. White's writing has sharp jabs and compassionate observation...

A watchable and competently acted drama...

...a darkly comic exploration of relationships among characters who don’t know how to maintain them.

The Good Girl offers nothing more spectacular than a character study. And, although The Good Girl's protagonist may be trapped by routine, that's one claim that can never be made about the movie.

...a carefully measured mixture of bone-dry comedy and genuine pathos that struggles to maintain its balance against the weight of Aniston's firmly established Friends persona.
