Reception

edit

Serena Donadoni of The Village Voice wrote that Tunick "infuses his debut narrative feature with a sunny optimism that gives an emotional drama the air of escapism."[2]

Gary Goldstein of Los Angeles Times wrote, "That it involves gay nuptials makes this sluggish talkfest feel like even more of a missed opportunity; something livelier and more compelling was in order."[3]

Stephen Farber of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that while the cast "helps to make the weak drama more watchable than it has any right to be", the "seasoned pros can only do so much to animate the earnest, antiseptic script."[4]
