It’s unfortunate that the film itself is more like a bottom-shelf blend: easily drinkable, highly forgettable, bland. Worse still, it won’t get you even mildly buzzed. Go to Full Review Jason Bailey RogerEbert.com Sep 15
It’s somewhat jarring that Brian Cox, an actor who is seemingly incapable of a false note, has directed a film that consists of one false note after another Go to Full Review Esther Zuckerman New Statesman Sep 12
There’s a clunkiness that pervades the entire enterprise. The dialogue is particularly wooden and the actors struggle through mixed metaphors. Go to Full Review Kent Turner Film-Forward.com Nov 1
