Critic Reviews

Dallas Observer David Ehrenstein

It makes for a nice lightweight evening. Read full review

Robert Koehler

Unusually slick, mini-budgeted and broad piece of slapstick that liberally borrows from Neil Simon and "The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight'' with the twist that gay hit men are the romantic heroes. Read full review

Phil Hall

A mild but diverting farce about misperceptions involving gays and goombas. Read full review

Chuck Wilson

Coury has made a technically polished first film, but her sense of comic timing and sexual politics is strictly borscht belt. Read full review

Dave Kehr

Quickly collapses into an overloaded, slow-moving series of predictable jokes and forced situations. Read full review

Jorge Morales

First-timer Coury's fast pace can't outrun Joseph Triebwasser's predictable script, saddled with mobster clichés and queer stereotypes. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

It is an inept, inane Mafia comedy with a gay angle, all the more insufferable because director Kristen Coury and writer Joseph Triebwasser clearly think they're being wonderfully cute and clever. Read full review
