Rotten
The longest and dreariest 94 minutes I've spent on a movie this year.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Overview
Indifferent to the notion of inheriting his father's estate, a restless, aging New Yorker passes time with his friends in games of mock sincerity, irreverence, and recreational cruelty towards those around them.

None of this is necessarily funny. That's the extent of the irony here.
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
Rotten
The joke, I guess, is that there's nothing funny about "The Comedy."
Barbara VanDenburgh, Arizona Republic
Rotten
A mean-spirited piece of mumblecore that tries to provoke you, but only succeeds in boring you.
David Lewis, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
A character study that tries to make the revolting compelling.
Kyle Smith, New York Post
