Entertainment Reviews:
3 stars out of 4 -- The actors make it new and poignant....The emotions of these characters come from hearts long worn down by the troubles we see.
Chicago Sun-Times
Jack Goes Boating is an impressive display of Hoffman's work. As an actor, and director, Hoffman always recognized the power of restraint to create a memorable impression - albeit, in this case, not one that leaves behind an indelible trace.

Haaretz
Ms. Rubin-Vega, with anger and defeat lurking behind her mask of competence and resilience, is stealthily heartbreaking, as is Mr. Ortiz...
New York Times
Rating: B- --
Hoffman the director can't compete with Hoffman the film's star. And he can pretty much just stand in wonder at the layers co-star Amy Ryan brings to the party. The woman is a natural wonder.

Detroit News
4 stars out of 5 -- [T]he most satisfying performance comes from the accomplished stage actress Amy Ryan who matches Hoffman scene-by-scene.
Box Office
3 stars out of 4 -- Making his debut behind the camera, Oscar winner Philip Seymour Hoffman directs like he acts, with a sharp eye for the small details that cut to the soul of a character.
Rolling Stone
[Hoffman] fuels the film with subtleties, from the slow burn of a love story to a lazy, piano-infused score....It lulls you with its slow-warming heart.
