The best of Chris Eigman's mid-1990s efforts, an outcome due more to Baumbach's poised direction than to the actor's typically irritating gloomy-sarcastic shtick.

Baumbach doesn't try to make any of his characters especially sympathetic in their slacker journey. He leaves that to the actors, who make these layabouts lovable.
