It's like watching the dreckiest of teen puppy courtships trying to pass itself off as 'Annie Hall.

It's all reasonably pleasant to watch, but Isacsson doesn't seem to know what to do with the story once Al and Imogen fall in love.
Brendan Kelly, Variety
Rotten
[A] relentlessly adolescent romantic comedy.
Lisa Alspector, Chicago Reader
Rotten
Belongs to that other kind of American teen comedy... movies of crushes and wagers and sex jokes, with patchwork plots and a standby army of eccentric comic sidekicks.
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Rotten
Doesn't summon up quite enough quirky personality to maintain its momentum through the final act.
