Snider 4/4 "An intersection of all kinds of filmmaking, genres and values that is ingeniously rich and one of the true gems of the year."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress B "An amusing picture with some nicely stinging lines and pungent observations."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 4/5 "An acerbic comedy by David Mamet set in a small New England town where some ethically challenged filmmakers are shooting a movie about the "search for purity.""   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3/4 "It's highly watchable, and, at times, humorously compelling."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 4/4 "Funny, satirical, and touching"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick "Intelligent, witty and nearly always amusing, the dialogue is the kind we'd all love to have rolling off our tongues at all times."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 7/10 "A nice, light comedy filled with several interesting characters, a few really funny lines and an infectious easy-going score."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo "Features characters so real, so flawed and, for the most part, so instantly dislikeable, it's hard not to find yourself immediately wrapped up in their antics."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 3 "This is exactly the kind of intellectual in-joke movie that a few people will adore with all their hearts, and a zillion people will go, "ehhh.""   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 6/10 "Has the appearance of a film that was a lot more fun to make than it is to sit through."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 9/10 "Mamet's jabs at Tinseltown's silken ruthlessness are quietly pointed, and the ensemble cast ... is brilliant."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3/4 "Works very well not only as a comedy but also as an ensemble character study."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes 4/5 "The well-spoken scumbags are still there, but now they're funny."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 6/10 "The execution of these amusing ideas falls flat with too much going on with too many characters."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford A- Read review   Flipside Movie Emporium   Jeremiah Kipp high +2 out of -4..+4 Read review   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R.
