Perry combines a knock-out cast with an incisive script for a wild-eyed musical-drama with poignant themes; Actors spend entire careers searching for a role as flashy and nuanced as Becky Something, and Moss makes the most out of every second on screen
it's truly one of the most noxious movies ever made, which might help to explain why it's also Perry's best; Elisabeth Moss is one of the most noxious movie characters of all time in this brave and rewarding punk epic
bafflingly unbalanced film; Becky, played by the always excellent Elisabeth Moss in a tour de force performance that holds passionately to the character's ugly depths...Viewers, however, may be so exhausted they won’t see the point in sticking with her
