San Francisco Chronicle
Disarms with its sincerity and frankness. - 91
Entertainment Weekly
This patient, perceptive, nonjudgmental love story about age difference is the first to convincingly explain the temporal physics of May-December romances. - 90
Variety
Wonderfully acted and slickly mad. Acutely written with an eye to the motivations and ambiguities involved on both sides in such a relationship. - 75
New York Post
Should make Polley, memorable in "The Sweet Hereafter" and "Go," into a bona-fide star. - 75
TNT RoughCut
Polley's doe-eyed innocence is in overdrive. - 63
Chicago Tribune
A shy and depressed college graduate falls in love with a Bohemian artist, as in Woody Allen's "Manhattan." - 63
USA Today
The cumbersome wrap-up, which follows a four-year narrative gap, seems too fanciful and bogs down what has been a stronger second hour. - 60
Film.com
A good, though unremarkable, film.
