Reviews


50
Los Angeles Times - Michael Rechtshaffen
The film insistently asserts its autobiographical roots at the expense of sharper plotting and characterizations, not to mention more energetic pacing.
42
The Playlist - Jason Ooi
Here is a film about truly extraordinary events that is mostly autobiographical and true to the lives and experiences of writers and directors Joe Syracuse and Lisa Addario which never manages to feel personal, and instead is reduced to coming off as just another raunchy comedy.
40
Village Voice - Chris Packham
Besides the narrative reversal, Montgomery is the only interesting part of the film — smart, obstinate, and ambitious. The gross-out scenes and raunchy banter between the film's sex workers are funny, but its world is pretty small and unsurprising.
40
The Hollywood Reporter - Frank Scheck
Biggs is appealing in the central role, although for him, conveying mortified embarrassment doesn't exactly qualify as an acting stretch. But he does have good chemistry with Montgomery.
38
Slant Magazine - Keith Watson
The film is peppered with interesting true-life details, but these are overwhelmed by frantic comedic sequences.
