The Swiss-quartz comic timing of the film's ensemble cast makes its neurotic characters more compelling than your average cinematic slackers.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
This is a hit and miss romantic comedy with a few solid laughs and some pretty smart dialogue.
Don't send a gift. Send your regrets. This is one wedding invitation that can clearly, safely be declined.
The aptly named Standing Still, about postcollegiate 20-somethings, has the dramatic momentum of a daisy-picking toddler.
Relentlessly shallow.
