| Tri-City HeraldGary WolcottBegins with an outrageous concept and takes it to the -- pun definitely intended -- max. |
| NewsBlazeKam WilliamsAs charming an offbeat romantic comedy as anybody could hope to make on a micro-budget. |
| Projection BoothRob HumanickThis likable indie comedy fails to completely get off the ground. |
| Film Journal InternationalEric MonderAdding to the glut of slacker-loser comedies, Skills Like This isn't particularly good or bad, just very average. |
| IGN MoviesCindy WhiteA quirky little film that relies heavily on charm to make up for some rather glaring flaws in story, pacing and character. Fortunately, it has charm to spare. |
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonA slick and clean cut piece of slacker comedy with great production and a fun sound track but sadly lacking in edginess. |
| Seattle TimesTom KeoghMiranda, a busy and successful director of commercials, shoots it all with slick economy and efficiency. |
| Dallas Morning NewsCary DarlingIt'll be intriguing to see where Miranda goes from here. |
