Jo (Laura Heisler) is having a bad year. She has major writer's block, a rather dire caffeine addiction and is deeply mourning the untimely death of her beautiful wife. To top it all off, her biological alarm clock is ringing off the wall. In an attempt to address the latter issue, Jo asks her late-partner's brother Jamie (Bryan Dechart) to be her sperm donor.

John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter 06/09/2017
Very obviously the product of personal experience, the picture shares some of its protagonist's awkwardness and unsure footing. Go to Full Review Sheri Linden Los Angeles Times 06/08/2017
Heisler brings the required neediness to the role, but the key problem with this sometimes whip-smart, sometimes mushy feature is that Jo and her story are far less interesting than some of the people around her. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/02/2020
3.0/4.0
