"Everyone has the same serious tone about them, and in a strange way it makes this film seem less than 3-dimensional, right from the start."

"A stylish film with a solid cast and equally solid acting. But it feels like an exercise film, the kind of filmic monologue one might produce for an assignment not unlike the story that the young hero concocts."
