No green light but the one mistakenly given to start production.

I still thought there were enough good performances, great visuals, and an interesting examination of a lifestyle in a way that we haven't seen a lot of times in movies for me to recommend it.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

An unpolished but entertaining tragedy filled with outstanding performances and memorable moments.
Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle

You should never make a movie about boundless, conspicuous wealth on an indie budget.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
