What are critics saying?
New York Daily News by Joe Neumaier
Irritating and clichéd.
The Playlist by Kevin Jagernauth
We strongly insist that any pain you experience while watching this movie will never be useful, anytime or anyplace.
The New York Times by Neil Genzlinger
Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You, a film based on Peter Cameron's novel, is several kinds of excruciating.
Slant Magazine by Nick Schager
Roberto Faenza shoots his Manhattan-set action with a glossiness that's as bland as the soundtrack ballads.
