-
"'Death Becomes Her' may be crude and tasteless, but it's also irresistibly funny and very well played"
-
"The new black comedy by Robert Zemeckis has more than its share of witty lines, sight gags and special effects. But even while you're appreciating its better moments, the cast is numbing them with their Arctic charm."
