| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferA wickedly funny, clever, refreshingly inventive and crowd-pleasing satire that's destined to become a cult classic. |
| Moveable FestStephen SaitoAs edgy as the humor is, the film never feels truly dangerous, though the combined efforts of Strauss-Schulson, Fortin and Miller to work within certain parameters actually appears to have led to more creative solutions rather than dull their blades. |
