The joy of The Sessions goes beyond sexual healing. It makes physical intimacy far more a matter of the heart, and you won't be alone wiping an occasional tear.
O'Brien was the subject of an Oscar-winning short "Breathing Lessons," and it seems likely that "The Sessions" will receive a few nominations of its own. It deserves them.
This film rebukes and corrects countless brainless and cheap sex scenes in other movies. It's a reminder that we must be kind to one another.
The movie is so clammily sensitive and tame that it stifles any strong response.
A sentimental, feel-good romance about pity sex.
The Sessions is bracing. It's also one of the few movies to recognize that people with severe physical disabilities have sexual lives, too.
A powerful expression of our common needs, fears, and consolations.
For better and for worse, The Sessions has 'crowd-pleaser' written all over it.
Neither an issue-pushing disability drama or a crude, American Polio-style sex comedy, The Sessions is sweet and winning - 'feel good' minus the fingers down the throat.
Another dynamite vehicle for John Hawkes, in which Lewin's affecting script overcomes his pedestrian direction.
Skilled direction, a talented cast and a simple but elegant story will garner a lot of sympathy from its targeted, more mature audience.
It offers a relatable depiction of the powers of a positive mental attitude and perseverance in spite of horrendously bad luck. And some Oscar-caliber acting, to boot.
An incredibly low-key and feel-good adult movie about sex that's much funnier than most people are probably expecting, highlighted by a pair of Oscar-caliber performances by its two leads.
A frank exploration of sex and disability, The Sessions compensates for a minor structural misstep with an acute ear for tone and stellar performances throughout.
The bottom line here is that yes, a movie about a physically disabled man makes for one of the sexiest date nights of the year. Unless you're allergic to over-20s.
With Ben Lewin's film The Sessions, Hawkes is given the biggest and juiciest leading role of his career, and he pulls it off with remarkable grace and humor.
Less dreary than uplifting, The Surrogate succeeds as a light romance with heavy material.
The movie methodically punts each time it comes across anything interesting.
The Sessions is a magnificent film. This tale of a profoundly disabled man's sexual awaking is not only a genuine crowd pleaser , but it also gives a cinematic voice to the marginalized.
