NEW YORK/LOS ANGELES/CHICAGO/TORONTO (4 Reviews)

Stephen Holden, New York Times: WEAK
"The best that can be said of this cluttered mosaic is that it gives the actors in the prestigious cast some amusing comic moments." (See all of Stephen Holden's reviews...) (Read the full review...)

Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News: POOR (cg)
"...a perfect example of savvy people working together on something with no center of gravity, so nothing pays off.... too muted to have any impact." (See all of Joe Neumaier's reviews...) (Read the full review...)
123 words, 04/23/10

Lou Lumenick, New York Post: GOOD (NOT GREAT) (cg)
"...blue-chip cast shines... tries, mostly successfully, to do for the London art world what 'In the Loop' did for diplomacy -- that is, send up its absurdities." (See all of Lou Lumenick's reviews...) (Read the full review...)
266 words, 04/23/10

Aaron Hillis, Village Voice: WEAK
"Duncan Ward tries way too hard to nail a way too easy target in his sub-Altman ensemble spoof of the overpriced, overhyped, overly pretentious modern-art scene." (See all of Aaron Hillis's reviews...) (Read the full review...)

MOVIE INDUSTRY (3 Reviews)

Leslie Felperin, Daily Variety: WEAK
"...aiming for an Altmanesque portrait... the flat script and clumsy helming hardly put this in the same league as 'Ready to Wear,' let alone 'The Player' or 'Nashville.' " (See all of Leslie Felperin's reviews...) (Read the full review...)
