The life of advertising executive Callum Cutter (Jonnie Hurn) turns chaotic after he meets a free-spirited French seductress (Julie Dray).

Robbie Collin

Daily Telegraph (UK)

Elephants, seahorses, geese and all other sentient lifeforms will indeed pray for mercy during this acutely dismal British romantic drama.

London Evening Standard

The film's giant clich about the natural life versus commercialism would be more effective if the girl skipping about like an overactive lamb was not such a pill.

Rated: 2/5

This is not a film for anyone's showreel.

CineVue

Its message of eschewing materialism is placed alongside surreal comedy, with supporting characters that are either grotesque or delightfully odd-ball, yet are never less than entertaining.

Rated: 3/5

Films about spiritual journeys should be celebrated, as they force us to explore deeper truths about our lives, but this one veers unevenly from comedy to drama to romance as it heads for a less-than-revelatory conclusion.

Rated: 3/5
