Film Threat - Ross Williams
Joyous. This is a film that will put a goofy grin on your face from the opening frame, through to the credits, out into the lobby, the whole way home, and possibly even till you fall asleep.

Philadelphia Inquirer - Steven Rea
A feel-good movie, in the absolute best sense.

Washington Post - Desson Thomson
A movie for aesthetically hungry moviegoers: wildly amusing, sometimes sardonic and always touching. There's so much here, and all of it delightful.

Austin Chronicle - Kimberley Jones
A film that wants you to get happy.

Miami Herald - Rene Rodriguez
At two hours, the movie is probably 15 minutes too long -- the final half-hour in particular could have used some trimming -- but complaining about having too much of a good thing makes one sound like a grouch.
