"Everything hinges on Blane's performance. Open and emotional and in-your-face as it is, there's more depth there than first meets the eye.”

Fresh Tomato Review from Rich Cline
“He may be a dork, but his pure intentions make even his most transgressive behaviour seem innocent...It's also disarmingly entertaining to follow Mark on this odyssey.”

Review from John Paul King
“Taken all together, the characters create a portrait of humanity comprised of broken, uncertain souls mustering all they have to rise to the task of facing their daily life. On paper, it sounds pretty bleak; on film, it manages to be empowering...it has a voice of its own that is not quite like anything else you’ve ever seen – and there are very few films out there today, Indie or otherwise, that can lay claim to that.”
-Los Angeles Blade
