Reception
[edit | edit source]Marc Horton of the Edmonton Journal wrote, "Hollywood has made countless movies where sickness serves as the catalyst for fundamental change in a person's soul. It's not often, however, where they make them with Yoon's level of integrity and disarming charm."[1] Lauren Mechling of the National Post wrote that Yoon "succeeds in creating a movie that is both personal and clever."[2] Merle Bertrand of Film Threat wrote that the film is "a charming and disarming winner, primarily due to Yoon’s relaxed and natural portrayal of Matthew."[3] Don Houston of DVD Talk rated the film 3 stars out of 5, and called the it "witty, inventive, and twisted", and a "stunning indictment on corporate policy and the material world far too many of us have succumbed to in recent decades."[4]
Anothony DellaFlora of the Albuquerque Journal wrote that while Yoon "pushes the envelope a bit too much", the film is "hilarious and touching, yet never sentimental."[5] Liam Lacey of The Globe and Mail rated the film 2.5 stars out of 4 and wrote, "Even at 82 minutes, Yoon's film sometimes feels padded, but when he hits the mark, he makes the weaknesses forgivable."[6] Geoff Pevere of the Toronto Star wrote that the film "has a shaggy-pup, eager-to-please quality that is both its most appealing and annoying quality."[7] Ken Eisner of Variety wrote a mixed review of the film.[8]
