2/5	Don Willmott	There were plenty of opportunities for originality here, but other than toying with a layer of Asian exoticism, writer Donald Martin doesn't stray far from convention Full Review \| Comment \| Jul., 30 2009 02:57 PM	Filmcritic.com
C-	Fr. Chris Carpenter	Too simplistic to be believable. Full Review \| Comment \| Jun., 15 2009 07:12 AM	Movie Dearest
2/5	Pete Hammond	Overly melodramatic and soap operatic. Very familiar episodic look at a comtemporary Chinese/American family and the gaps that divide them. Full Review \| Comment \| Jun., 12 2009 01:36 PM	Boxoffice Magazine

	Ernest Hardy	Director Anna Chi�s Chinese-American family drama, from a screenplay by Donald Martin, is ambitious in scope and banal in execution. Full Review \| Comment \| Jun., 11 2009 11:25 AM	L.A. Weekly
