Club, 06/03/2009, "[B]eautifully shot, unimpeachably acted...[the] film spins a slow-motion tragedy out of everyday frustrations..." Entertainment Weekly, 01/01/2009, "Winslet has the tricky job of making us see the glimmer of wisdom in April's cockeyed plan, and she pulls it off....Winslet is so meticulous in her telegraphed despair that she intrigues us..." -- Grade: B+ Chicago Sun-Times, 12/05/2008, "[With] Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio, in two of the best performances of the year....Sam Mendes reads minds when words aren't enough, and has every detail right." Empire, 02/01/2009, 4 stars out of 5 -- "This fertile soil for choice moments of observation and nuance....The most moving then in the film is the on-top-form DiCaprio's devastating physical reaction at a particular moment." Premiere, 12/24/2008, "The directing, acting, set design -- it's all top notch; Michael Shannon is especially good..." Total Film, 02/01/2009, 3 stars out of 5 -- "There's plenty to admire here. DiCaprio and Winslet channel much nuance into their home-based hell." Box Office, 11/21/2008, 4 stars out of 5 -- "[An] intelligent and emotionally dense adaptation....Winslet gives a brilliantly detailed performance of swallowed emotions that will almost certainly result in gold-plated kudos comes awards time."

Rolling Stone, 01/08/2008, p.120, 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "Directed with extraordinary skill by Sam Mendes....DiCaprio is in peak form...And the glorious Winslet defines what makes an actress great, blazing commitment to a character and the range to make every nuance felt." Washington Post, 01/02/2009, "Sam Mendes's spiritually depleted film exerts an undeniable pull as its beautiful, doomed protagonists navigate the ennui of adult life." Los Angeles Times, 12/26/2008, "Only a stone, frankly, would not be captured by the honesty and intensity of Winslet's performance, by the breathtaking way she throws herself into this lacerating emotional maelstrom." USA Today, 12/26/2008, 3 stars out of 4 -- "[T]he performances are superb, and the film is beautifully shot. And the dialogue, much of it lifted directly from Yates' books, is contemplative and incisive." Release NoteDVD Features: Product NotesThose who were waiting for the romantic reunion of TITANIC's Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet may be surprised by what they find in REVOLUTIONARY ROAD. The movie begins with a sweet scene where Frank (DiCaprio) and April (Winslet) meet at a party, but the rest of this drama based on Richard Yates's novel is devoted to watching the destruction of their marriage and their selves in 1950s suburbia. Frank works at a job he hates in New York City, then commutes home to two children and a wife who feels none of them belong in their cookie-cutter town. Their realtor (a fine Kathy Bates) recognizes their specialness and introduces them to her mentally unstable son (BUG's Michael Shannon, in another good, unhinged performance) in an effort to establish some normalcy for the man. However, Frank and April's marriage is not as perfect as it seems to the outside world, and the audience gets to witness their downfall.
