Richard Roeper

[An] uneven but timely and quite funny feminist satire. Read full review

Wes Greene

Feb 21, 2018

The film displays a sprightly tone and blissful sense of liberation in charting the exploits of characters seeking to live by their own feminine-centric rules. Read full review

While the pic proves too frivolous to make its satirical and social points fully register, it offers diverting pleasures along the way. Read full review

The picture lacks for nothing but big laughs. Read full review

Sheri Linden

Feb 22, 2018

As the writer-director's sly gaze shifts into an insistently upbeat appeal for female empowerment, the movie loses its comic steam. Read full review

Graham has crafted some decent monologues for her characters.... But, even at a hair over an hour and a half, the movie would benefit from a good trim, one that might give the movie’s parallel romantic stories more shape and snap. Read full review

After sitting through this rather unpolished production as it lightheartedly bumbles its way around a serious subject, I mostly wished that I could un-see it. To say that Half Magic, in which Graham also stars, is half-baked would be kind. Read full review

I enjoyed watching this. The screenplay was cute with a few laughs. Cast was talented with some decent direction from Graham. While not too many surprises to be found in the plot there are some bizarre characters here to keep the comedic oddballs flowing to the end.

How Graham managed to script and direct two pretty good subplots and yet leave herself the clunkiest, most awful story is a mystery. D'Elia delivers strong laughs but, ultimately, this vanity project isn't worth your time.
