The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: B
"July, who also wrote the script, is a keenly observant filmmaker. She lays out relationships in little telling bits."
Austin American-Statesman: 2 of 5 stars
"... the lank, scraggly Hawkes is sympathetic and real, but ... he seems to be in a totally different, more believable film, emoting and reacting among the chronically detatched."
Dayton Daily News: A-
"... funny, strange and endearing."
