Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal Feb 22
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. Go to Full Review

3/4
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. Go to Full Review
Brent Simon AV Club Feb 20
B
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. Go to Full Review

I’m proud. But I can be proud and blind. This film had the financing to pay for audio description. Go to Full Review
Marlon Wallace The M Report (WBOC.com) Jul 12
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. Go to Full Review

It just doesn't go anywhere and it's so disappointing. Go to Full Review

Chuck Mar 16 Seemed like it was trying to make a point but I have no idea what it was See more TP Mar 5 Didn't care much about any of the characters. Pretty slow moving. See more Meloney Mar 5 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. See more john Mar 4 If your goal is to leave the theater in a state of depression give it an extra 2 stars See more Dave Mar 3 Great family relationships See more lucindabwatson L Mar 2 There were some parts of the movie that were very poignant, but on the hole, I found it slow and disjointed See more Read all reviews
