The work of someone who has read too much of his own press, and in his rush to make a film to address critics, forgot to come up with a movie worth seeing.

The talented cast is largely wasted on the strange-just-to-be-strange tales.

Solondz is so intent on hammering home his message that he forgets to make it entertaining.

Top CriticTodd Solondz: The world doesn't need him around, but as long as he's here we may as well have some laughs.

Storytelling feels slight.
