A searing portrait of the disintegration of not just a marriage but, more importantly, the love that once fueled it.
Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic

An autopsy of a failed marriage, it contrasts the giddy honeymoon beginning with the sad denouement after dysfunction has devastated the groundwork of hope and newness.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
