  • Ned (Liev Schreiber), a Brooklyn-based television writer whose life as loving husband and father is turned upside down, not by any single crisis, but by a number of little curveballs thrown at him all at once. First, his marriage to Jeannie (Helen Hunt) is subjected to strain when her sick father (Brian Dennehy) moves in with them, turning Ned’s normally attractive, intelligent wife into a bundle of raw nerves. Then, their teenage son, Jonah (Ezra Miller) announces he is gay, but refuses to discuss it with his somewhat surprised and stymied father. Further complications arise at work, where the hilariously vulgar producer (Eddie Izzard) of the series Ned writes insists on ramping up the show’s shock quotient. Late night rewrite sessions with his cynical, sexy co-worker, Robin, nearly push Ned over the edge, and threaten to unravel his already frayed marriage. Full synopsis

A mundane story that was not made better by what should have been a great cast....

Very well written and acted, Every Day feels like a glorified television drama softened with comic and surreal trimmings. Read full review

There 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. Read full review

Disappointingly ordinary film. Read full review

It's hard to empathize with the family in the indie drama Every Day when each member is so sitcom-ready. Read full review
