| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanVery, very funny, thanks to a lively first script by Mark O'Rowe, who has a good ear for earthy dialogue and a sense of life's absurd little synchronicities. |
| The Film YapNick Rogers"Intermission" is a bloke-and-smoke spin on "Love, Actually." It's for women seeking a romantic comedy that doesn't reduce relationships to cutesy-poo homilies. By adding shootouts and car chases, it's slso for guys who are just not that into goo, either. |
| Sacramento BeeJoe BaltakeCrowley ... nimbly juggles all of these characters and gives his slight film a bouncy, knockabout quality. |
| Dallas Morning NewsTom MaurstadA welcome reminder that the best, most fun entertainment encourages thinking, not the cessation of it. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThat it succeeds is some kind of miracle; there's enough material here for three bad films, and somehow it becomes one good one. |
| Arizona Daily StarPhil VillarrealThe dialogue sparkles with wit and energy, and the plot constantly twists and turns in entertaining spirals. |
| Reel.comTimothy KnightAn apt name for this inconsequential effort: You'll definitely want to take a break from watching it. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonO'Rowe and Crowley emphasize the general hopelessness in these people's lives but still give the movie enough spice and drive to lift it above the gloom. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekA fast-moving, wonderfully rowdy, terrifically entertaining collage of stories...boasting some witty surprises on its way to a satisfying conclusion. |
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonOne of those films that should keep you entirely entertained but that disappears from memory almost immediately. |
