Grenier is terrific, bringing an unforced, rapid-fire delivery to Toback's Heidegger- and Nietzsche-referencing dialogue.
Chuck Wilson, L.A. Weekly

The attempt is courageous, even if the result is wildly uneven.
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News

What makes the movie work is that the premise, which sounds like a comedy, is treated with the seriousness of life and death.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh
Toback offers a complex, borderline campy, and oddly entertaining study of modern moral dilemmas.
Loren King, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
A crisply made movie that is no more than mildly amusing.
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
