Although Quinn may strike some viewers as more annoying narcissist than self-deprecating charmer, he's a vivid creation. Read full review

Chris Klimek

It works, mostly, thanks to Helberg’s committed, vanity-free performance, and to the bubbly chemistry between him and the luminous Melanie Lynskey as Devon, his first and only love. Read full review

Lynskey's performance is sympathetic, but the movie doesn't fully convince us in its dramatization of her responses to Quinn's large and small blunders. Read full review

A sporadically amusing, more often grating romantic comedy. Read full review

This film requires so many leaps of faith and suspensions of disbelief that you might develop acrophobia. Read full review

Nick Schager

Jan 21, 2015

Throughout, Helberg's awkward-anxious routine proves insufferable, and it's made no more tolerable by supporting turns from Zachary Quinto, Alfred Molina, and Judith Light, who are given so little to do that their presence in this mess feels downright cruel to both them and us. Read full review

The danger in writing, directing, producing and casting yourself in the same movie is that there’s no one to pull you back from the cliff. Simon Helberg (“The Big Bang Theory”) did co-direct this grating vanity affair with his wife, Jocelyn Towne, but neither seems to realize how misguided it is at every step. Read full review

This movie was so insufferably bad. It was agonizing to watch the lead actor. Not only was the acting subpar but the plot was non-existent. I will never get those precious minutes back...
