4/5 |
The late Spalding Gray's monologue is typically fascinating, and Soderbergh's creative staging is a treat.

3.5/5 |
A chatty, colorful, nicely sardonic account of how a crisis led Mr. Gray to assess his medical state, consider his mortality and take one more funny, self-dramatizing look at the eccentric world around him. Full Review |

|
2.5/4 |
At best, Gray is a tragicomic Everyman who strikes an empathic chord in his admiring audience; at worst, he's a middle-aged, self-absorbed, hopelessly provincial New Yorker -- an urban hick who won't shut up. Full Review |

Gray's Anatomy is a triumphant reminder of the power of words to summon our deepest fears. Full Review |

B+ |
Using every cinematic trick in the book, [director] Soderbergh turns Gray's one-man world into the most surreal mind-expander since Alice fell down the rabbit hole. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
The movie version of Gray's material seems arch, contrived and starchy, not the spontaneous eruption that his theater work manages to resemble. Full Review |
||
|
3.5/5 |
In spite of Soderbergh and the painful lack of an audience/laugh track, Gray's story is immediately compelling, proving that once again, a talking head can truly entertain an audience. Full Review |

Gray’s Anatomy finds Spalding Gray turning a bout with a bizarre ocular condition into a dizzying, absorbing odyssey of the neurotic mind. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
The film manages to come off like a dinnertime conversation with a friend -- albeit a one-sided and long but very good and very funny one. Full Review |
||
|
3/5 |
Not only is it interesting to follow the course of Gray's storyline, the movie is also equally interesting to view, even if the storyteller is just sitting in front of a desk most of the time. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
There's something intrinsically insincere about the whole quest. Gray is on a search less for a cure than for material. Full Review |
||
|
5/10 |
Soderbergh is a gifted director (SEX, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE; KING OF THE HILL); Gray is a gifted monologist (SWIMMING TO CAMBODIA). They're just not a very good match for the creation of a film. Full Review |

If you cannot see Spalding Gray live, then do see his monologue films. Gray's Anatomy can be infuriating, but Spalding makes it worthwhile. Full Review |
