Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 5.7/10 --
The film's themes of guilt shine through, but the flawed final product makes A Master Builder frustrating to watch.

Way Too Indie
This is a modern-dress MASTER BUILDER but the bulk of it remains quite faithful to Ibsen.

Minneapolis Star Tribune
Rating: 3/4 --
Gregory (credited as having 'created for the stage' this version), Shawn (the translator/adaptor), and Demme (the director) nobly pursue their solid, usually convincing, but rarely exceptional concept for a manifestly challenging symbolist play. [Blu-ray]

Groucho Reviews
Rating: 2.5/4 --
For a movie that lasts longer than two hours and is made up solely of talking, it's impressive that the story never seems to drag.

As is his wont, Mr. Shawn employs insidious sleight of hand to score moral points.
New York Times
Rating: 7/10 --
Hagerty and Joyce are revelations; the beating hearts of the film.
