Hits a number of the right emotional buttons, due in large part to Roth's extraordinary performance.

Almodóvar is able to speak through this melodrama with great mastery to all women... and all audiences for that matter. [Full review in Spanish]
August 12, 2008
An emotionally satisfying and brilliantly played take on the ups and (mostly) downs of a group of less-than-typical female friends.
December 24, 2008
Like Almodovar's first masterpiece, Women on the Verge of Nervous Breakdown, this vivid melodrama, the auteur's second masterwork, celebrates the resilience and camaraderie of women under duress.
August 12, 2008
For me it felt like a good many weeks at a politically correct summer camp.
September 20, 2016
Thought-provoking Almodovar drama has lots of sex, profanity
August 12, 2008
It brims with life.

...about the ability of melodrama to speak to, and rise from, our mundane lives.
April 27, 2007
All About My Mother, for all its self-deconstruction, is played with more sobriety and conviction than any of Mr. Almodóvar's previous films.
December 13, 2009
This film is as close to a masterpiece as the director has ever produced.
August 12, 2008
It's a lovely work.
February 09, 2006
It displays a depth and maturity lacking in Almodóvar's earlier work.
