(1 - 19) of 19 OFCS Rating: 63% Fresh Page   1   D+ "It's a gentle romantic dramedy, but misfires at every turn, making for a tedious motion picture that minimizes a fascinating subject."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf C- "...sanitized romantic comedy never cracks the surface of its delicate and complex subject."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 4/5 "British actor Hugh Dancy manages an astonishing feat by making viewers empathize with a character that has trouble feeling empathy."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger B "It's actually a humorously bittersweet story buoyed by likable performances, and not an oh-geez-here-comes-another-film-about-a-saintly-disabled-person movie."   Cinematical   Eric D. Snider B- "Sounds like the stuff of a Hallmark Hall of Fame telefilm, but happily Mayer's sensitivity and the skill of Dancy and Byrne raise it to another level."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 5/5 "A romantic drama with tender and touching characters that shows how those we love can be our greatest spiritual teachers."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 3/4 "This is an affirmation that it's still possible to find smart movies about one of the most basic aspects of the human experience: falling in love."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "Parental Content Review"   Screen It!   Jim Judy B+ "metaphor for the inevitable obstacles that lie ahead for any two people who venture into a relationship"   Old School Reviews   John A. Nesbit 2/5 "It’s hogwash of the highest order, a romanticized take on disability that sees it both as God-gifted higher calling and seductive precoital bling."   Time Out New York   Keith Uhlich 1.5/5 "If you're going to be the poster man/child of any disability, you'd want to look like Hugh Dancy."   Film-Forward.com   Kent Turner C+ "Mayer and his lead, Hugh Dancy, do a fine job conveying where an 'Aspie' is coming from, but Mayer's direction of his actors is weak with several scenes notable for off timing, amateurishness or staginess."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford "[T]oo-earnest, underemotional... [but Dancy] and Byrne are what make this a movie worth seeing, for their delicacy and tentativeness in coping with one another..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson B+ "Writer/director Max Mayer has crafted a sensitive, even lyrical, script that quickly makes us care about both of these characters."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow "Dancy and Byrne are both appealing enough performers and I can see how the two of them might click in a romantic comedy with a strong screenplay and tight direction but writer-director Max Mayer has neglected to supply them with either one."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 2/5 "Quirky and cute almost to the point of distraction, the offbeat romance is only rescued by its likeable cast and an intriguing storyline"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 7/10 "A good, if contrived, romantic comedy that exposes the world to Asberger's syndrome while drawing a line between love and dependence."   Monsters and Critics   Ron Wilkinson 3/4 "Adam's disorder is but one piece of a tender relationship puzzle that's nurtured out of its shell by the performers."   Charlotte Weekly   Sean O'Connell 7/10 "Sensitively exploring a bittersweet relationship that's unusual and uncertain, demanding compromises and courage"   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger  (1 - 19) of 19 OFCS Rating: 63% Fresh Page   1
