| ArtVoiceM. FaustIt evokes a mood of wistful sadness at lives lost to dreaming. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleIt's original and poetic, and if you see it you will probably remember scenes from it a year from now, because it's not really like anything else. It's very much its own thing. |
| Movie DearestFr. Chris CarpenterCelebrates classic Hollywood and the wannabe starlets who flocked there...Engrossing and sweet if not particularly striking in execution. |
| Film ThreatMark BellWill it change your life? Probably not, but it will entertain, and even if you do find it eventually gets too slow for your tastes, the film at least delivers enough memorable performances for you to at least walk away with something. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyA disappointing feature directoiral debut, which amounts to no more than a tiresome, shallow tour of Hollywood Boulevard. |
| New York Daily NewsJoe NeumaierSometimes a bit of befuddlement is exactly what you need. That's the driving idea behind writer-director Steven Peros' off-kilter, off-the-beaten path comedy, which owes a lot to 1980s indie cinema. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzMostly appealing and thought provoking adult Hollywood fairy tale. |
| Slant MagazineAndrew SchenkerIt all leads to some rather obvious bits of dialogue and down the rabbit hole of a half-baked, borderline incoherent conclusion. |
| VarietyRonnie ScheibExhibits stray instances of intrigue and wit, and makes nostalgic hay with its enshrinement of old-timers Pippa Scott and H.M. Wynant, but ultimately suggests a too-writerly, over-padded "Twilight Zone" episode. |
| Time OutS. James SnyderSteven Peros's character study is clearly designed as an homage to vintage Tinseltown mystique, so it's a pity that the old guard would have been mortified by Peros's rudimentary craftsmanship and Temtchine's thudding performance as a walking metaphor for L.A.'s young, A-list–averse idealists. |
