I've seen this twice and loved it both times... It had its hilarious, unreal moments but for the most part it was so raw and real, emotional. It was the first movie to make me tear up at a happy part. I can't wait til it comes out on DVD!

by Ed Blank [Pittsburgh Tribune-Review]
“..a film that alternates between being charming and sleep-inducing..”
by Calvin Wilson [St. Louis Post-Dispatch]
“..an uneven mess..”
by James Berardinelli [ReelViews]
