Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal It doesn’t pretend to offer solutions to the various predicaments it considers. But Mr. Pritzker has a sagacious understanding of our various stumbles and humiliations. Feb 22, 2025 Full Review Tomris Laffly RogerEbert.com Pritzker navigates his compassionate tale empathetically, portraying a refreshingly kind, gentle, and soft side of masculinity through a group of characters all stuck inside a crossroads life has thrown at them. Rated: 3/4 Feb 21, 2025 Full Review Brent Simon AV Club An interesting, intergenerational snapshot of masculine emotional drift in the modern world. What may strike some as lightweight will connect with attuned viewers as a compassionately observed collection of just-so moments—a worthwhile cinematic novella. Rated: B Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Marlon Wallace The M Report (WBOC.com) The title of this film is a bit of misdirection. It isn't about understanding why these men are 'ex-husbands.' It's actually about fatherhood, and it's more about the relationship between Peter and his sons. Jul 12, 2025 Full Review Manuel Betancourt FilmWeek (LAist) It just doesn't go anywhere and it's so disappointing. May 9, 2025 Full Review Lael Loewenstein FilmWeek (LAist) It never quite finds its rhythm... Too heavy to be the comedy it wanted to be and too funny to address these serious issues.

Chuck Seemed like it was trying to make a point but I have no idea what it was Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review TP Didn't care much about any of the characters. Pretty slow moving. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review Meloney The trailer is deceiving… I went into this thinking there would be more comedic moments. Instead, there were very rare isolated chuckles from our audience, and this movie dragged. I kept expecting the plot to peak, for there to be a turn of events to elevate the storyline, but nothing ever happened. This reminded me of a Woody Allen movie, but not as interesting and with less angst. Skip this in the theater and rent it at home. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review john If your goal is to leave the theater in a state of depression give it an extra 2 stars Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/04/25 Full Review Dave Great family relationships Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/03/25 Full Review lucindabwatson L There were some parts of the movie that were very poignant, but on the hole, I found it slow and disjointed Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/25 Full Review Read all reviews
