Tom Keogh Seattle Times Oct 29, 2009
1.5/4
A disappointingly monotonous weepie. Go to Full Review
Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Sep 23, 2009
1/5
[Jaglom's] closing dedication -- "For my daughter" -- turns this into something actively creepy, as opposed to merely brainless, boring and inept. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Mr. Jaglom displays an endearing lack of cynicism but an equal lack of discipline. Go to Full Review
Mike Miliard Boston Phoenix Dec 9, 2009
1.5/4
Henry Jaglom has been making indie movies for decades. He's a devotee of unadorned camerawork and semi-improvised dialogue -- but some actors are better at improv than others. Go to Full Review
Armond White New York Press Sep 23, 2009
Against this Judd Apatow era, Jaglom's exploratory filmmaking requires a personal response unhindered by TV formula. His semi-improvised vignettes go in unexpected places, often profoundly emotional directions... Go to Full Review

5.5/10
Too contrived, sophomoric and unmoving, despite a lively soundtrack and a radiant performance by the genuinely beautiful Tanna Frederick. Go to Full Review

Apr 10, 2011 There were some nice things in the film, but it did not all come together. It was hard to stay with it, but I love Victoria Tennant. I figured out the big plot twist right away, it was not a challenge. Good for a rainy day with nothing else to do. See more Dec 17, 2010 A slight but good father-daughter story. See more Oct 19, 2010 "I'm learnin' at Starbucks!" Awful. Simply awful. See more Aug 31, 2010 I;ll simply put full blame for this inept, unsavory, mess on Jaglom and call it a night. See more Jun 9, 2010 This film cracked me up - until the end. Irene, played beautifully by Tanna Frederick, is a real nut case, I knew someone like her once - she was hard to take but pople admired the fact that she had so much energy. Anyway, she;s an emotional train wreck of a girl, looking for her lost daddy in all her date and trying to "do it right" by reading all the popular books on dating. Irene In Time is funny and moving in some parts. Victoria Tennant is wonderful as Irene's mom. And you can't lose in a movie that had both David "the Sopranos" Proval and Karen Black. See more May 7, 2010 so so beautiful !! i am crying. "i am dancing with my father" beautiful song too See more Read all reviews
