Mark Olsen Los Angeles Times The characters never feel like people, they are always mere functionaries of the story. Rated: 2/5 Oct 4, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Not the typical Del Shores comedy we all come to expect. This is a much darker work. There is still some humor but the story takes you places you would not expect. The fact that this movie was made in two weeks gives great credit to Del and the cast for the depths they were able to reach in the film. It took me for a wild ride and left me a little out of breath at the conclusion. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing! Bring the Kleenex.
