Critic Reviews

Joshua Land

The characters are a bit too OCD for LOL to work as the definitive commentary on technology and human relationships that it strives to be...But the movie is unusually attentive to the ironies of communications technology. Read full review

Don R. Lewis

For non-actors, everyone in this film really pulls their character off extremely well. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Joe Swanberg - who directed, edited, lensed, co-wrote and played one of the lovelorn characters - has done wonders with a nothing budget and a personable cast of nonprofessional actors. For viewers so disposed, there are several arty shots of nude women. Read full review

Nathan Lee
