(1 - 8) of 8 OFCS Rating: 25% Rotten Page   1   B "Ira & Abby is a charming film, but it's nearly great when it settles down and causally explores life's often strange complications."   eFilmCritic.com   Brian Orndorf C "Offers some smiles and rueful insights about the vicissitudes of love, but its almost slavish imitation of the Woody Allen formula ultimately makes it seem stale."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 1/5 "A romantic comedy about a kooky couple that sinks in a whirlpool of therapeutic clichés."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 1.5/4 "Neither Westfeldt's sunny charm nor the best efforts of a stellar supporting cast can haul her formulaic screenplay out of its tired shtick."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh B "The movie benefits from an exceptionally strong line-up of supporting characters beautifully played by a top-notch cast."   Chicago Sun-Times   Nell Minow 2/4 "Amidst its inquiry into the feasibility of monogamy, marriage, and true love, Ira & Abby raises a more pressing issue: Is this all there is to mainstream indie filmmaking?"   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 2/5 "It spends so much time reminding of how quaint and kooky it is throughout that you may find yourself pulling out your wallet or purse and offering it some of your hard-earned money if it will agree to just simmer down and go away"   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski C+ "The steady addition of more and more characters served to fragment what could have been a charming romantic comedy."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford  (1 - 8) of 8 OFCS Rating: 25% Rotten Page   1
