Start with a profound family tragedy, go through several seemingly meaningless but highly detailed day-to-day interactions between strangers, add an unexpected romance and a young adolescent in sexual orientation crisis, throw in another family tragedy for good measure, finish with an ambiguous conclusion that offers no closure for the audience or characters in the script, and you've got every indie film ever.

Impressionante como Will Forte fez coisas muito melhores depois que saiu do Saturday Night Live (Nebraska, Run & Jump e The Last Man on Earth).

Forte's transition from SNL to mainstream is confirmed after his performance in last year's 'Nebraska' and now this delightful little Irish film.

This was a sweet, but rather forgettable story.

De vertolking van Will Forte weet je als kijker enige interesse te geven om Run & Jump helemaal af te kijken, maar dankzij het banale verhaal over een man die een zware hersenaandoening komt het allemaal wat misplaatst over. Geen beroerde film, alleen overtuigde het mij voor geen meter !

Honest, and within touching distance of real poignancy.

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

This film's subject matter is gloomy but, interestingly, this is not a gloomy film. Instead, it is spilling with warmth, humour, colour, life, plus the weather is mostly nice.

CineVue

Green's first full-length outing ultimately disarms thanks to two affable lead leads and a highly commendable "always look on the bright side of life" outlook.

This bears much promise as to what could achieved from this talented filmmaker in the future.

Rather too much is going on to be comfortably accommodated in one film.
