Critic Reviews
-
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
An intermittently interesting but fatally clichéd comedy of personal and professional suicide.
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
Astute show business satire packs a darkly comic punch.
-
Brian Miller, Village Voice
In adapting her recent play The Scene, Theresa Rebeck can't find a consistent tone for her material or players.
-
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Everything about this movie feels right, from its sardonic score to its assured camera work and cutting.
-
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Suffers from a case of Haven't-I-Seen-This-Movie-Before-itis.
