Kroll is too limited with what he can do with the personality he either has or creates for the film. (I'll go with the former). Twenty lashes with film stock and back to TV for him.

"Adult Beginners" doesn't reinvent the comeuppance comedy, and it's a better movie because of it.

A satisfying enough slice of semi-content suburban life ...

Adult Beginners has no agenda for subtlety.

It's not as sharp or witty as you'd expect from a Duplass Brothers product ion but Adult Beginners is still another decent outing in their ever-impressive canon.

"Adult Beginners" has enough going on to work as a mostly unchallenging time-passer, and nothing more.

It's a story we've seen a few dozen times before, but first-time director Katz tells it with a nice focus on character.

"Adult Beginners" is one of those agreeable small-scale movies that doesn't seem particularly ambitious; its only goal is to charm, and it does so, irresistibly.

Kroll's basic task here is fairly lazy and certainly unoriginal.

Both an enjoyably modest comedy/drama and a bit of a sales pitch for Nick Kroll, Movie Star.

Adult Beginners is a darkly funny indie film about family and second chances.
