The intelligence and unhackneyed humor of the believable, unself-conscious screenplay by fledgling director Mr. Zwick (son of veteran director Edward Zwick) deserves special praise. It never hits a false note.
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Rotten
The chronicle of a less self-absorbed generation, it's less annoying than The Big Chill but also less funny.
Kate Taylor, Globe and Mail
Rotten
Only Plaza's performance as the troubled Sarah comes close to creating a three-dimensional character.
John Hartl, Seattle Times
Rotten
The insight that social media fosters false intimacy is old news. The film shows only a half-formed sense of how careers have changed in 30 years.
Ben Kenigsberg, New York Times
