| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferMasterfully blends romance and comedy in a refreshing, endearing, life-affirming and unHollywood way without feeling contrived, corny or convoluted. |
| Cinema SignalsJules BrennerMy pick for best romantic comedy of the year--from any country. |
| The New York TimesStephen HoldenThe movie's steady attention to detail lends it a texture rarely found in films about domestic life. Its eye and ear for the particular and for what is left unsaid in tense conversation is unerring. |
| San Francisco ChronicleJustin BertonUnderscores that choices in love are rarely clean and easy, and more often than not, are poignantly funny. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliThere are no big-name stars. Barbara Serafian, who is excellent, has a thin, eclectic resume. She looks a little like Frances McDormand. |
| Denver PostLisa KennedyEmotions run deep but are never overdone. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertAn uncommon comedy that is fairly serious most of the time. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoA pleasing alternative to the season's Oscar-baiting movies. |

| indieWireLeo GoldsmithThere aren't many surprises%u2014the characters end up more or less where we expect them to%u2014but it's useless and not at all fun to deny the simple pleasures of this film. |
