It's too little, too late for Crano's Wes Anderson-inflected innocence-disrupted project...

Lou Lumenick

RTNew York PostMay 11, 2012

Brian Crano's very slight debut of a comedy.

Andy Webster

RTNew York TimesMay 10, 2012

Mr. Canterbury's character is a Hollywood child archetype: wan and withdrawn, all monosyllables and needy stares.

R

Richard Propes

RTTheIndependentCritic.comSep 2, 2020

The film's real gift, despite her supporting role, is the presence of longtime Crano friend Rebecca Hall.
