Critic Reviews

Stephen Holden

The film's distance from factual reality oddly enhances its bleak underlying vision. It portrays a demoralized American work force fearfully going through the motions of life while waiting without much hope for things to get better. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

Groundlings alumnus Prendergast's dark comedy, drawn from on his own family experiences, is firmly rooted in messy, selfish, often-unappealing human behavior rather than self-referential irony and juvenile goofiness. Read full review

Nathan Rabin

While the film's social-satire elements are flat and overly familiar, its dry absurdity is unmistakably Lynchian. Read full review

Jim Ridley

Catches the nation's mood of economic anxiety and workplace exploitation more pungently than anything else in theaters. Read full review

Stephen Farber

The film is an ambitious mix of slapstick, black comedy and stinging social commentary. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

Strange and quirky. Read full review

Josh Rosenblatt

Quirky and undisturbed, unaffected and unaffecting. Read full review
