A neurotic couple's obsession with a puzzle unravels their world and disconnects them from reality.

Monica Riese

Austin Chronicle

Alex Dobrenko and Ashley Spillers are perfect for their title roles... and the supporting work from the rest of the small ensemble is delightfully charming as well.

Ultimately a sweet, simple ode to the virtues of honesty and commitment in a relationship, "Arlo & Julie" may be a trifle at day's end, but it's a deft and pleasurable one.

This low-key effort from indie filmmaker Steve Mims is as wispy as dandelion fluff but still makes for an amusing 76-minute ride, thanks to its charmingly quirky cast.

Rated: 3/5

Austin American-Statesman

Dobrenko and Spillers are delightful in their leading roles. Their comic timing is flawless, and they have a tremendous chemistry, pushing the story forward even as it starts to get a little wacky.

Rated: A-

The pay-off is logical (if convoluted), and has real consequences to the relationship between the two, which deserves its own special recognition, seeing as how so many tiny indies think that the journey is its own reward.

What a fun and different sort of movie. Humorous, witty, simple and charming, it's great way to spend the evening. Loved the fun and unique story, loved the cast and thoroughly enjoyed this film. It's a nice change from the standard summer movie selections. Do yourself a favor and go see this one. You'll be glad you did.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Intimate and charming. Great acting from the two leads. A smart, sweet little indie who's charm is in it's cleverly constructed mystery and in the chemistry of Dobrenko and Spillers.
