Reviews

"It's funny without resorting to broad slapstick, and it's poignant without settling for cheap sentimentality."
Todd Jorgenson - cinemalogue.com

"While there are humorous and poignant moments, this angst-filled story of tender kisses, awkward dances, friends drifting apart, kindly English teachers, unrequited crushes and drug-addled partying has a nagging sense of deja vu."
Claudia Puig - USA Today
