Funny, disciplined, and acted with great skill and warmth.

You can't take your eyes off [Murray], and you leave Broken Flowers hoping he's feeling better -- about life, love, everything.

A very gentle and wry outing for Jarmusch and his star.

Murray's performance is a highlight in a very entertaining dramedy.

Insightful, entertaining, and a worthy addition to the filmography of one of America's more interesting modern directors.

Many will relish Broken Flowers' refusal to serve up a resolution; others will find it frustrating. Inevitably, that's Jarmusch: like Murray's character journey, the rewards lie in the small moments that fade as much as the ones that linger.

Murray manages, almost impossibly, to come up with still another rich variation on his Depleted Man persona, and his performance is at once enormously generous and fiercely, concisely witty.

Throbs with compressed emotion
September 26, 2005
There's a real poignancy in watching Murray's emotional chill thaw from the heat generated by even the idea of romance, or at least its more libidinous evil twin, lust.

Completely charming, but ultimately slight.
August 16, 2007
The ending is sublime, a set piece that almost makes up for the overwhelming slightness of it all.

Murray shows us that what was behind his early-period jaded-hipster shtick was a melancholy and fearful man.
