Emma Myers indieWire Olnek is clearly a talented writer, and it's unfortunate for a film with such a promising premise that the one-liners and situational humor don't add up to more than the sum of their parts. Rated: C- Aug 16, 2016 Full Review Melissa Anderson Artforum Merkins sends up both male-hustler movies (Midnight Cowboy and My Own Private Idaho in particular) and the upscale, conservative daughters of Gomorrah with unerring goofiness. Jan 21, 2015 Full Review Justin Lowe Hollywood Reporter Merkins gets by on its considerable wit and a few genuinely hilarious moments for the first hour, then tries to play catch-up in the final 30 minutes by attempting to capitalize on marginal subplots. Jan 21, 2015 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Perhaps scrappy and episodic, which only adds to its infectious charm, this is an unfailingly funny film. Rated: 4/5 Sep 12, 2019 Full Review Fred Topel CraveOnline You can tell Monahan and Haas have a natural chemistry and comic rhythm. Jan 21, 2015 Full Review Mark Adams Screen International Monahan's stand-up background shows through as she delivers many of the witty one-liners. Jan 21, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
