Toronto Star

Well before the 87-minute mark is reached, the hilarity has died down to a few titters.

The result is caustic in its wit but also commercial in its appeal, and that's a tricky juggling act to bring off.

While I found much to admire in it, I never laughed, and I say this as both a mockumentary fan and as someone whose funny bone is easily tickled.

The Delicate Art of Parking is held together because of its strong characters. They're funny, they're quirky and, most of all, they're realistic.

Slow, not very funny and generally boring. It started as a pseudo-documentary then lost its way and became a fictional comedy. I was not impressed at all.

A well done Moc Doc that is held together by strange but believable characters, heart, and a small mystery thrown in for good measure.

A mean-spirited Canadian mockumentary that's well executed and cohesive.

I loved this movie. It was just so hilarious and seemed so realistic in many ways. Not a perfect movie, but still a slice. I hear it is a 'cult classic' with parking meter attendants across North America. Who else will speak up for these poor despised folks!!
