Reviews for American Women
A harmlessly amusing comedy about the pursuit of love in a tiny Irish community.
This small, quaint comedy offers up a half-baked fantasy in a lush back-village setting. It’s an amiable, unremarkable 92 minutes of wacky, dimwitted characters.
The admittedly good-spirited story rambles like a guy telling a long joke that doesn't have a punch line.
