An offbeat, sometimes self-congratulatory road movie romance.

Richard Roeper, Richard Roeper.com

They embark on one of those maundering, life-lessony odysseys that filmmakers love but audiences rarely do.

Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Rotten

One of those many indies that exist to give actors a chance to go slumming.

Kyle Smith, New York Post
Rotten

Well-acted but ultimately unmemorable ...

Jen Chaney, Washington Post
Rotten

The film equivalent of a dysfunctional computer sloppily assembled from discarded parts of other machines.

Stephen Holden, New York Times
