Heavy on the awkward silences and joggling, invasive close-ups. Go to Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 02/02/2012
1.5/5
As the camera skitters spastically around its troubled schlub, the film becomes a muddy, minimalist moan of desperation. Go to Full Review Ronnie Scheib Variety 02/02/2012
Audley, a helmer in his own right, somehow infuses Eddie with a compelling presence that exerts an offbeat authenticity. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

05/15/2015 There is something quite affective about this odd sort of mis-fitted film. Just long enough to not be considered a 'short', Dustin Guy Defa's movie somehow manages to keep you watching even when it becomes tediously uncomfortable. The main reason to see this film is Kentucker Audley who delivers a constant stream of frustrated uncomfortable confusion that often feels could turn violent. Sadly, the film itself doesn't provide an appropriate level of support for it's performance. Audley's character's stand-up routine is painfully absorbing. See more Read all reviews
