Like so many filmmaking wunderkinds who could have used a course in common sense, Glanz is technically assured but emotionally hollow.

Top critics, in their words
Rotten
It takes effort to turn a movie with a cast as appealing as the one in "The Longest Week" into a grating exercise in narcissism, but writer and director Peter Glanz proves up to the task.

It's clearly the work not of a lazy thief, but of a raw talent who's still struggling to find his own voice. In the meantime, his impressions are pretty darn impressive.

Rotten
Writer-director Peter Glanz seems determined to make a subpar Wes Anderson knockoff. And in that sense, he has achieved undeniable success.
David Hinckley, New York Daily News
Rotten
Lacking any significant character arc or motivation, The Longest Week is little more than a series of insipid conversations between bored aristocrats who snark at each other in monotone.
