But when Buzzy's damaged and impulsive half-sister Linda (Kerry Bishé) arrives at their doorstep expecting to stay for an indefinite period in their Tribeca loft, her antics threaten to disrupt the couple's commitment to an "easy" marriage.

Critic Reviews
-
Ronnie Scheib, Variety
As [Burns'] characters grow older and more entrenched in borrowed luxury (Buzzy is a physical trainer who married into money), their charm wears increasingly thin.
-
Andrea Gronvall, Chicago Reader
Burns's faux-documentary style allows space for some wickedly revealing confessions, while jump cuts accentuate his characters' rapid-fire showdowns.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
It has both the charms and the shortcomings of the indie fringe.
-
Matt Singer, Time Out Chicago
Burns and Fitzgerald make a snappy onscreen couple.
-
Caitlin Colford, Paste Magazine
Ed Burns' latest writing and directing venture holds the perfect recipe for swiftly putting audiences into a New York state of mind.
