The Center of the World movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Ho hum. Read more
Tom Maurstad, Dallas Morning News: For the first half of this movie, The Center of the World is really onto something. Read more
A.O. Scott, New York Times: The self-consciously rough, low-budget surface of The Center of the World can't disguise the slick cheapness at its heart. Read more
John Zebrowski, Seattle Times: The characters aren't very interesting, caught in a cycle of sex and rejection that while explicit, gets a little tiring. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: There comes a point in The Center of the World when it seems that watching that Pamela Anderson-Tommy Lee video might just be more rewarding -- and surely less pretentious. Read more
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle: We leave the theater thinking less about how the film made us feel or think than the mechanics of how it was put together. Read more
Steven Rosen, Denver Post: It comes off as contrived. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: Too arty by half. Read more
Kevin Maynard, Mr. Showbiz: You're not likely to get much of a rise out of The Center of the World. Read more
John Anderson, Newsday: Had Wang's movie been a little less impressed with its own world-weariness, a little less intent on trying to reshape Last Tango in Paris (or, perhaps, 9 1/2 Weeks) for the age of the Internet, he might have been on to something. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: You want real? This movie shows you real. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: Mindless and prurient. Read more
Jessica Winter, Village Voice: The film is hysterical but inorganic, lacking blood, sweat, or tears. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Way off-center in any world. Read more
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post: Wang is working on your mind, not your body. Read more
