Radheyan Simonpillai NOW Toronto Rated: 1/5 May 25, 2012 Full Review Stephen Cole Globe and Mail Watching Jesus Henry Christ sometimes feels like being trapped in a building with a faulty fire alarm. Rated: 1.5/4 May 25, 2012 Full Review Linda Barnard Toronto Star If it all seems a tad to quirky and twee, that's the overwhelming flaw in director Lee's obvious and lightweight homage to director Wes Anderson. Rated: 1.5/4 May 24, 2012 Full Review David Bax Battleship Pretension That sort of thing felt unnatural in Napoleon Dynamite, eight years ago. Here, it's just embarrassing. Mar 4, 2021 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com A deplorably maligned effort that grovels unashamedly for attention, Jesus H. Christ, what were they all thinking? Jul 24, 2019 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Aggressively, painfully quirky... Rated: 1/4 Jan 9, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I don't know why, but I liked it very much Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Like em or not they're your family. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/08/18 Full Review Audience Member a funny black comedy that writer/director Dennis Lee gets right on the money. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review caleb j Imagine watching a Wes Anderson movie, except that every five minutes, someone screams in your ear, and switches to another movie before you can say "WTF?!?" Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny, but not hilarious. Sweet, but not sickening. A bit and of a gem and worth your time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A delightful, artful, and thoroughly entertaining expose on the power of genetics to influence man, humor, and good film making. Unlike most critics, I loved it and found it neither over wrought or improbable, but what the fuck would I know about the topic, I'm just a doctor of genetics.
