Rating: C --
The film is marked by the same darkly humorous sensibility of rest of Solondz's work, excpet that the novelty is gone and the acerbic vision is now contained in a fractured text marred by poor storytelling and shifting tone--it's not easy to shock anymore

Rating: B+ --
That Storytelling has value cannot be denied. Not even Solondz's thirst for controversy, sketchy characters and immature provocations can fully succeed at cheapening it.
Houston Chronicle
While Solondz tries and tries hard, Storytelling fails to provide much more insight than the inside column of a torn book jacket.

Sometimes seems less like storytelling than something the otherwise compelling director needed to get off his chest.

In a scabrous follow-up to Happiness, Todd Solondz once again crafts a movie easier to admire than it is to like.

In his latest effort, Storytelling, Solondz has finally made a movie that isn't just offensive -- it also happens to be good.

Description by OLDIES.com:
The first story, "Fiction," stars Selma Blair as Vi, a confused university student who engages in an impulsive tryst with her Pulitzer Prize-winning professor (Robert Wisdom) after arguing with her cerebral palsy-afflicted boyfriend (Leo Fitzpatrick). The second tale, "Non-Fiction," stars Paul Giamatti as Toby, a down-on-his-luck documentary filmmaker who turns his camera on Scooby (Mark Webber), an unmotivated teenager, and his suburban New Jersey family.
