Reception
Rita Kempley of The Washington Post gave the film a negative review and called it "an embarrassment for venerable Patricia Neal, who stars with hambone Shelley Winters, who blushes at nothing."
Michael Wilmington of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a mixed review and wrote, "we get a mostly unremarkable pastiche--in which three fine actors manage, occasionally, to shine."
Steve Simels of Entertainment Weekly also gave the film a mixed review and wrote, "In short, An Unremarkable Life is a sleeper in the literal sense of the term."
