Los Angeles Times At a mere 76 minutes, the movie skips past what seems like lots of crucial exposition in favor of vague flashbacks and confusing inserts. Rated: 1.5/5 Sep 20, 2007 Full Review Aaron Hillis Village Voice An undeniably personal if amateurish psychodrama... Gaglia's torture re-creations become rote quickly, and his cross-processed, color-tinted, randomly inserted, over-zoomed Film School 101 indulgences need their meds adjusted. Jul 2, 2007 Full Review Raven Snook Time Out An earnest but amateurish look at a cultlike rehab, Nick Gaglia's semiautobiographical debut feature means well. Then again, so did his parents when they condemned him and his sister to a sadistic substance-abuse program. Rated: 1/6 Jun 28, 2007 Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide Overall, the performances are surprisingly convincing, but the mockumentary elements feel out of place and the intrusive switching between B&W and color denotes nothing; it's just a gratuitous flourish that detracts from the raw story material. Rated: 2/4 Jun 27, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews
