Critic Reviews
-
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News
Takes on a plethora of phobias. Homophobia, racial prejudice and age discrimination are among its targets, and it hits them squarely and fairly.
-
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle
An uneven but provocative drama.
-
Ty Burr, Boston Globe
A very good drama about the difficulties of being young, black, and gay. With a bigger budget and a sharper focus, it might have been a great one.
-
Bjorn Thomson, Washington Post
Works far better as an idea than its execution.
-
Ellen Fox, Chicago Tribune
Ambitious but clumsy, it's a movie to appreciate rather than to be engaged by.
