Susan Stark, Detroit News
The key to Lonergan's success? He has faith in the intelligence of his audience. It's that simple -- and encouraging.

Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel
I never thought I would say this, but I am starting to think that Laura Linney may, in fact, be a very good actress.

Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle
This funny and involving film presents its well-drawn characters to us pretty much the way we would encounter them in life.
-
Steve Murray, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A little movie concealing surprisingly big emotions.

Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
This feature debute, which gives good name to American indie cinema, is worth revisiting on DVD for the performances of Mark Ruffalo and Laura Linney.
