Reviews

IndieWire - Eric Kohn
This is pop art by way of lowbrow slapstick, with a premise that suggests "Cast Away" meets "Weekend at Bernie's," but really feels like a lunatic's idea of a big, broad studio comedy — or maybe a mad scientist's.
75
Consequence of Sound - Justin Gerber
Frenzied, kinetic filmmaking is hit or miss, but The Daniels are showcasing their talents as opposed to showing off.
75
Slant Magazine - Christopher Gray
Even as it invites snarky ridicule, the film dares you to buy into its singular earnestness.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - Leslie Felperin
It’s entirely to the directors and the two lead actors’ credit that what sounds like a bunch of overextended body humor gags of the most juvenile variety evolve, by sheer repetitious attrition, into something bizarrely poetic and strangely touching.
70
Variety - Peter Debruge
At times deliriously dynamic, at others patience-grating in the extreme, the constantly inventive film fires off ideas that are as exhilarating as anything American audiences will see all year, only to lag in long swells on either side.
