07/03/04
It might be the first vanity project within a vanity project.
06/25/04
Most entertaining is Alan Rosenberg's wicked spoof of actorly neuroses.
06/18/04
We get, basically, a love note from one to the other. But what we don't get is an absorbing movie.
06/17/04
A wonderfully entertaining, hilariously funny and sweetly touching story.
06/16/04
A funny, tender, satisfying blend of fiction and cinema vérité.
06/11/04
A chronicle of embarrassment that gratifyingly, if narrowly, avoids embarrassing itself.
06/11/04
The pleasant surprise is that it's often funny and unexpectedly engaging, in large part because Pressman knows better than to ask you to feel too sorry for the fictitious 'Pressman' and 'Chess.'
06/11/04
There's little that's particularly dramatic or funny for the outsider in this autobiographical vanity project.
06/11/04
A good-natured, mildly appealing video feature.
06/10/04
Top CriticA glorified home movie, redeemed by Alan Rosenberg's hilarious performance as an egomaniacal actor.
06/10/04
Indulgent home movie.
06/09/04
Successfully amalgamates Henry Jaglom's Hollywood- home-movie aesthetic, ego-skewering satire, and a measured understanding of the kinship between love and risk.
06/08/04
A sharply written, directed, and acted character piece brimming with good-natured laughter and real affection.
05/28/04
A delightful little sleeper of a love story.
05/28/04
It's art imitating life imitating art -- or something like that. Whatever, it's not very good.
05/28/04
A bittersweet, wryly amusing 'dramatic fiction.'
05/27/04
Top CriticA blend of fact and fiction that audiences might find puzzling and at times a little self-indulgent, but sometimes very funny and occasionally quite touching.
05/27/04
Proves that playing together can bring zest to any sagging long-term love relationship.
