Jonathan Foreman New York Post Rated: 2.5/4 Oct 6, 2002 Full Review Eric Harrison Houston Chronicle A terrible movie that some people will nevertheless find moving. Rated: C- Sep 6, 2002 Full Review Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times The actresses may have worked up a back story for the women they portray so convincingly, but viewers don't get enough of that background for the characters to be involving as individuals rather than types. Rated: 2/5 Aug 2, 2002 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 10, 2005 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International For all its comprehensiveness and length, not really engaging and more than a little formulaic. Oct 6, 2002 Full Review Edward Havens FilmJerk.com How many more times will indie filmmakers subject us to boring, self-important stories of how horrible we are to ourselves and each other?

Audience Member A interestingly mundane 90min consisting of nine women including a therapist, with each 'patient' having unequal sharing time with the group. It's safe to say the proportion of extroverts to introverts is 1:1. The awkward cacophony of voices, morals and lifestyles is felt almost immediately as the first session is more or less incessant bickering over queer lifestyle. Needless to say, the bigot & the Christian tag-team against the lesbian & the amputee whose beau is going thru a F to M transition. If this is anything like reality, I think I'm okay with my depression & generalized anxiety; god forbid if any of them were to start crying, the room fell all but silent with the weeping, unstable character completely exposed with no empathy or sympathy whatsoever. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member LOVED the music! And Tom Wilkinson is exceptional as always. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member While the subject's appeal is limited and the film's 106-minute running time excessive, viewers who do respond to the pic will find it raw, real and cathartic. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
