Reception
Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 20% based on reviews from 5 critics.
Robert Koehler of Variety criticized the film as being "overly calculated" and predictable, noting that the only bright spot in the film was its soundtrack. Scott Weinberg of Cinematical writes that the movie's ending is anything but "pat, obvious, or predictable," and goes on to say that it is worth seeing on the strength of the actors' performances alone.
It was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, but did not win.
