- 63RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoRogerEbert.comBrian TallericoIt doesn’t all make sense or add up to much, but there’s a consistency to its inconsistency that I admire. It’s something that works on a mood more than literally. Kind of like a great country song.
- 40The New York TimesGlenn KennyThe New York TimesGlenn KennyThis movie gets better the more it strays from its real-life models and into hazy hallucinatory American weirdness. But the snotty dismissiveness with which it treats country music ultimately overwhelms its intriguing qualities.
