John Petrakis Chicago Tribune Kinney is solid, as usual, but it is young Muth who gobbles up the screen. Jul 20, 2001 Full Review Charles Taylor Salon.com This scattershot little movie doesn't have nearly enough going on in it. May 21, 2001 Full Review Jami Bernard New York Daily News A fine example of how a character-based story can be so compelling you don't miss the frills. May 16, 2001 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 12, 2005 Full Review Joshua Tanzer Offoffoff An intelligent, personal drama. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 11, 2003 Full Review Maria Garcia Film Journal International Actors move as though they were confined to a small space, hindering their expressive ability.

Audience Member loved it, I like Ellen Muth Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Awkward story about a photographer and father who juggles three relationships with the women in his life (lover, daughter, and associate), while undergoing a mid-life crisis of sorts. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Awkward story about a photographer and father who juggles three relationships with the women in his life (lover, daughter, and associate), while undergoing a mid-life crisis of sorts. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member omg! i had an obsession with ellen muth, i watched this film... wasn't good but i loved her and i enjoyed watching it :D Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member The film's one saving grace is 18-year-old Ellen Muth, who gives one of the screen's most natural, non-Hollywood portrayals of a child. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member As much as i love Ellen Muth, i couldn't sit thru this one. I really just wanted to reach thru the screen and slap both of them!
