Critical reception

Stephen Holden of The New York Times gave it a mixed to negative review:

The humor is both too oblique and too mild-mannered for the movie to cohere as a modern comic fable. It amounts to little more than a series of loosely connected tangents that come to an abrupt and unsatisfying conclusion.[2]
