Andrew Jenkins' amateurish, half-hearted romantic comedy-cum-heist film twists itself into unconvincing knots to pull off a guilt-free bank robbery.

Ronnie Scheib, Variety
Rotten

An excellent actor too often stuck in unworthy roles, Nick Stahl deserves much better than Andrew Jenkins' derivative, self-conscious heist flick.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Rotten

An 81-minute movie that runs out of ideas well before the halfway point.

Stephen Holden, New York Times
Rotten

Bereft of anything resembling subtlety or common sense, this cretinous caper flick does offer a lesson on how to rob folks of $10.50. The bank aspect is merely incidental.

David Fear, Time Out New York
Rotten

It seems especially depressing when so-called independent filmmakers have nothing on their minds except aping the style of Hollywood's hip caper movies.

Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter
