Reaction: Not a huge loss thanks to decent home video sales figures. The difficulty of marketing the film very well may have had a hand in the film's mediocre box office gross.

"This is probably writer Alex Conn's strongest solo effort as a writer. The characters actually feel like real people here, and not just versions of characters we've all seen a million times before." - Michael Wilmington, Rolling Stone

"While there is some decent character work and some strong performances from the likes of Jeremy Irons, Connie Britton and Bill Hader, there are sections of the film, especially in the teenage Alex portion that lack focus. Had the film just been about the adult Alex, the film would have felt more coherent." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com

"The film struggles in the first half without much direction, but once Bill Hader takes over as the lead in the second half of the film things improve and a story starts to emmerge." - Tim Durand, San Francisco Chronicle

Rated R for language, drug use and sexuality/nudity.
