El regreso de Ben

...lysande skådespel.

Julia Roberts spiller sin bedste rolle i årevis som insisterende løvemor, der taler optimistisk om sin søns åbenlyse bedring, mens hun gemmer medicin og smykker af vejen, syg af bekymring.

...ett starkt missbruksdrama...

Ben Is Back takes good care of parents and children, offering a sensitive and panoramic understanding of how deep love runs, and to what extremes it can take you.

...the film belongs to Roberts and Hedges, whose on-screen bond is both remarkable and heartbreaking.

...the ever-excellent Roberts and Hedges keep it a largely compelling watch.

Roberts is convincing as a parent torn between wanting to trust her son and needing to take responsibility.

Spännande, starkt och ångestladdat med utmärkta Julia Roberts och Lucas Hedges.
