It's entertaining, well-written, slice-of-life stuff, but I'd rather spend 90 minutes with one of these stories than flit between several in a manner that does little to illuminate any of them.
Dave Calhoun, Time Out

Without getting grand or preachy, the Sprechers use an unconventional approach to coax us into asking ourselves fundamental questions.
Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel

Often messy and frustrating, but very pleasing at its best moments, it's very much like life itself.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Fresh
Smart, serious and deftly composed.
