Critic Quotes:
"A Real Pain is actually a real pleasure to watch because of this comedy/drama's skillful performances. It uses a familiar movie formula of two opposite people who go on a trip together, but this journey remains engaging."

"Jesse Eisenberg crafts a wonderfully acted, poignant, emotional, and weirdly hilarious story about two mismatched cousins taking a road trip across Poland."

"Career-best stuff for both Culkin as an actor and Eisenberg as a filmmaker, in ways that create genuine excitement for whatever the latter does next."le."

"A Real Pain is an exceptional film from Jesse Eisenberg that may just hit you in a hidden cathartic place that you may not see coming."

"A Real Pain is more than a story about two cousins who don't always see eye to eye, but a story of how the real pain of the past has healing properties one may never see coming with exceptional performances by Culkin and Eisenberg"
