6.4 / 10
No one reads books anymore. What Lina Roessler’s feature debut, "Best Sellers", gambles on is the likelihood that people will want to watch a movie about how no one reads books anymore.

6.3 / 10
The second half of "Best Sellers" slows down, almost to a halt, as assorted personal issues, “secrets” and the physical and psychological damage catches up with one and all.

1. Variety
What "Best Sellers" loses in edge and interest, then, it gains in genial likability, as Caine’s and Plaza’s respective brands of comic outsider energy melt agreeably into each other, and an unabashedly sentimental sort of father-daughter dynamic ensues — directed by Roessler with a light, modest touch that resists the script’s broader impulses.
