There are plenty of laughs in the outrageous predicaments and the actors are obviously having a ball.

Reviews for Park
1 - 11 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
There's very little cohesion among the separate storylines and aside from some nice performances, it all seems rather pointless.
11/16/07
None of the characters seems particularly believable, except Lake's; she brings some feeling to a thin role. And the campy, "outrageous" comedy is pretty thin, too.
11/16/07
Suicide, infidelity, spousal abuse and arrested development are the building blocks of Park a wearisome comedy.

Top CriticMan, have we gone downhill since Short Cuts.
11/16/07
It's all harmlessly naughty at the outset, but when it comes to juggling all those characters and their intersecting scenarios, Voelker lacks the dexterity of, say, Robert Altman.
11/09/07
If Park aspired to any real insights or to any ambition beyond the routine, its hysterics would be worth sitting through.
11/07/07
A flotilla of L.A. residents gathers in an unlandscaped recreation area in Baldwin Hills to canoodle, attempt suicide, plot revenge and dig into one another's psyches in writer-director Kurt Voelker's high-spirited if slight comedy, Park.

Top Critic[Makes] the most of thrifty means to highly entertaining effect.
11/01/07
It's a hilarious, crowd-pleasing film about everything from honesty to sex to freedom that's definitely smart without being too overbearing.
06/24/06
Enjoyably rude but uneven.
