Reviews


100
Tampa Bay Times - Steve Persall
It's more amusing than you might expect, and ultimately more touching than an eroding society around them deserves.

Boxoffice Magazine - Unnamed
A charmingly lo-fi love story.
75
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Not mainstream fare, but neither is it as willfully obtuse as "Melancholia."
75
Observer - Rex Reed
Intelligent, dignified and emotionally satisfying.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - Unnamed
With its sharp script and bittersweet humor, the audacious premise feels fresh enough to earn a large word-of-mouth audience among moviegoers who would normally avoid a more conventional rom-com, potentially becoming a left-field breakout hit in the mode of "Juno" or "Little Miss Sunshine."
