Mind-numbingly awful.

At times this movie is as slow as watching grass grow... it’s a film with some nice moments that’s a tad on the hokey side, but always tries to be super-duper earnest.

Utterly lifeless and dull and quite simply hard to sit through.

This is the kind of smug, listless product that the world, indie or otherwise, would be better off without.

Inconsequential with a made-for-TV look.

Daltry Calhoun proves to be as slight as a blade of grass—and, unfortunately, about as intoxicating as the legal kind.
