Stephen Holden New York Times 12/15/2016
Mr. Fendt's first feature film after three shorts, is a throwback to the early days of mumblecore. It views the world through Mike's eyes, and what he sees is unfailingly drab. Go to Full Review Jorge (JJ) Negrete Butaca Ancha 01/03/2018

Richard D 02/19/2023 Well it is a strange thing. I am fascinated though. It's a city in the USA with people and apartments that you don't normally see. And people walk. Often they don't have cars. Friends and acquaintances bump into each other in the street. Mike. How come everyone is so nice to him? Because they are so nice. I love the portrayal of the characters. Does the actor come up with the character themselves? Is there a script? Are they actors? Oh the more I write an extra star I want to give. Better give up now. But wait. It is also the apartments. The studenty kitchens, one well stocked but nowhere to store things. So cooking oils and sauces are grouped on the bench tops. Recipe books line the kitchen window shelf. Really, the detail, the ordinaryness, is beautiful. Five stars? See more Read all reviews
