Critic Reviews

  • Matt Weitz, Dallas Morning News

    The coincidences are almost all supremely transparent and the characters gratingly quirky, two faults that committed acting almost redeems. But not quite.

  • Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

    The performances are solid, even when the roles are aggressively whimsical.

  • , Los Angeles Times

    There are a couple of affecting moments here and there, but they are lost amid more than two snail-paced hours of often maudlin tedium.

  • Joe Leydon, Variety

    Warm-hearted but clear-eyed indie effort richly repays audience patience during deliberately paced and provocatively allusive early scenes with a cumulative emotional impact that is immensely satisfying.

  • Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter

    An overly ambitious, overly complex and overly long opus that bites off more than it can chew.
