Reception
Jessica Brice Young of Orlando Weekly rated the film 4 stars out of 5 and wrote that it "comes on like an Iris Murdoch novel transposed to the here and now, each character fully realized and finely drawn." She praised the performances of Hill, Bodunrin, Larson, Heffron and Dumas.

Alexander Ortega of SLUG Magazine wrote: "It’s not a banger, but this film is worth a gander if not for its darkly comedic tone and Brownie’s gleeful yet hopeful quasi-triumph in the end."

Nina Metz of the Chicago Tribune wrote that while the film "has a languorous quality that borders on uncertainty", Hill's "wide-eyed, increasingly mangled deadpan gaze is worthy of a silent comedy all its own."

Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote that the film has "a lot of snark but not much actual amusement".
