A film of real beauty, which is surprising, since it's not a movie of beautiful sentiments or settings.

May be scant on character and plot development, but it’s rich with affection for daydream believers

The cast is up to the challenges of that arc, but the plot doesn't always keep them afloat.
50
This is a downbeat, indulgent and self-consciously quirky little movie.
50
Slightly less than lovable. It’s a strained romantic comedy that starts promisingly, takes a hard left turn and slowly falls apart.

The idea is more interesting than the screenplay, which lags badly in the middle and lurches between not-very-funny comedy, unconvincing dramatics and some last-minute action strongly reminiscent of "Run Lola Run." Great soundtrack, though.
20
The only flicker of thematic interest -- AM radio obsession as psychopathology -- is duly subsumed into a sea of desperate soundtrack come-ons.
