Stephanie Merry Washington Post 07/21/2014
Oliver is off to a promising start. Let's hope it's enough to get his next go-round a wider theatrical release. Go to Full Review

This movingly understated drama benefits from strong performances and incisive characterizations. Go to Full Review
Miriam Bale New York Times 11/21/2013
With awkward slow-motion effects, clunky transitions and pregnant zooms that seem conspicuously in the wrong speed or otherwise a little off, Mr. Oliver's film aims for a glossy mainstream aesthetic without the budget or skills to match. Go to Full Review
Rob Thomas Madison Movie 02/25/2015
3/4
The affecting and low-key drama skips past the usual dramatic scenes of someone who has suffered a psychotic breakdown, instead showing us the quieter but more convincing struggle of someone trying to piece his life back together afterwards. Go to Full Review
Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 11/23/2013
9.1/10
Remains character-driven throughout and doesn't have a moment that rings false, pretentious or contrived. Gbenga Akinnagbe gives a genuinely heartfelt performance. If there were any justice, he'd get some awards attention. Go to Full Review

04/21/2016 A touching and realistic look at mental illness that is overall uplifting despite its honesty and still remains to bring some hope to those stuffing from the disease and shows one mans triumph and determination despite what can seem to overcome impossible obstacles from within and outside. Brilliantly acted by actors who make you want to care and root for the characters, without being overly mushy. A much more realistic look then the much more popular Silver Lining Platbook. Definitely worth the viewing. Again. The acting was excellent See more 01/24/2016 Awsome movie and cast See more 03/27/2015 incredibly accurate and moving portrayal of chronic mental health issues and recovery See more 03/19/2015 Honest film, well directed with convincingly authentic, genuine performances by all leading roles. The deft portrayal of a mental patient's desperate but determined goal of independence and relative normalcy is both powerful and humbling... Easily one of my top ten favorites in recent years. See more 02/17/2014 Home: is a award-winning drama about the human spirit. It is also a realistic portrayal of battling mental illness. You'll be totally carried away - a must see movie with meaning. See more 02/17/2014 This was such an amazing film. The cast and story were amazing. The most realistic portrayal of mental illness and the stigmas that I've seen. Well worth a look!
