When screenwriting manuals and college courses admonish aspiring filmmakers to use narration sparingly, if at all, and to show rather than tell, they're talking about movies like this dreadful new quirk-fest. Full Review
Rockwell's committed performance can't save the glib debut of filmmakers Geoff Moore and David Posamentier. Full Review
A tepid but pleasant comic satire given a shot of contemporaneity by its writing and directing team, Geoff Moore and David Posamentier, and its star Sam Rockwell. Full Review
A bit of a cheat - and goes soft in the clutch. Full Review
