May 4, 2012Lifeless, soulless movie about a subject that isn't shown the respect and reverence it deserves. Bullock, who would go on to make more dramatic films with awful scripts, is the shining light in the midst of the darkness, as per usual. Though her performance varies between the gir... read more

March 6, 2012The Life of the Party... before she got a life.
Good film! Sandra Bullock did an amazing job at one of her earlier films as an actress. 28 Days" is one of the most accurate movies about alcoholism and drug addiction I can remember. The film does not glamorize or poke fun at its ... read more -

March 7, 2010A good comedy drama as a New York journalist has to go to rehab for 28 days to cure her addiction to alcohol. It has some good actors and has some funny moments. Overall more drama than comedy but still a good film on the whole

January 19, 2009Sanda Bulllock does great in this film. It's a movie worth watching, but not worth praising.
Positives: Most actors nail there spots. There is some humrous moments and some emotional moments. The film makes a decent attempt to boost you from high-times, to low times, as to get... read more -
September 1, 2008Employs its share of cliches here and there, but overall, this is a fairly entertaining and well acted take on rehab and the path to ending self-destruction. Bullock, Mortensen, and Buscemi shine.

It's going to take more than 28 Days to jump-start Sandra Bullock's stalled career.
January 1, 2000
F.X. Feeney, Mr. Showbiz
With Sandra Bullock in the lead, writer Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) spinning the tale, and director Betty Thomas calling the shots, it's a reliably solid treat.

Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle
28 Days tries hard to be funny. Occasionally it is. But mostly it seems forced, pat and didactic. Full Review
January 1, 2000
Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune
28 Days is a cutesy, heavy-handed morality tale that contains nary a believable moment.
January 1, 2000
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Bullock brings a kind of ground-level vulnerability to 28 Days that doesn't make her into a victim but simply into one more suitable case for treatment. Full Review

Louis B. Parks, Houston Chronicle
It's not bad, but it's not very good, either. Full Review

Jonathan Foreman, New York Post
Sandra Bullock's best film in years -- perhaps even the best work she has ever done.

Robert Horton, Film.com
28 Days is a reminder of why Bullock became a movie star in the first place
