| VarietyCourtney HowardThis magical-realist fairy tale, about a young woman feeling so isolated and insignificant after a tragic loss that she’s literally invisible to everyone except one other struggling soul, is certainly imaginative and intelligent in its ideas. However, the savvy smarts within don’t quite sustain the running time and, much like its protagonist, the film becomes transparent in its motives and sentimentality. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThough it may be amusing to watch Holly sneak around and expose others' lies, it would be much more fun if her own story rang true. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayThirlby gives a good performance as someone who finds it easier to remain a non-person than to make any effort to fix her life. But the more Holly comes into view, the blander her character becomes. |
| User ReviewAWESOM-0Good idea but not the smartest writing. Parts were well acted and quite enjoyable, they were just to far and few between. |
| User ReviewTony1984An interesting premise that started strong. Unfortunately, it took a nosedive into a vat of treacle in the second half and became just another forgettable hour of mush. |
