Critic Reviews

A diverting dramatic comedy.

Fantasy sequences, including animation, keep the melancholy tone from overwhelming the proceedings.

The kind of exercise in semi-autobiographical reflection that is almost impossible to carry off without its seeming self-absorbed.

Charming self-made vehicle.

Overlong and heavy-handed.

It's ultimately hard to care deeply about a silly, sheltered girl-woman who's taking an inordinately long time to learn that money can't buy happiness.

The contrast of the naive assurance of youth with the confusion and ambiguity of adulthood is sweet but simplistic and the wandering script hasn't much else to offer.

Long-winded, jokingly self-deprecating, and clichéd.
