Critic Reviews for As Good as You

All Critics (4) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (3)

Very obviously the product of personal experience, the picture shares some of its protagonist's awkwardness and unsure footing.

John DeFore
Hollywood Reporter
Heisler brings the required neediness to the role, but the key problem with this sometimes whip-smart, sometimes mushy feature is that Jo and her story are far less interesting than some of the people around her.

Sheri Linden
Los Angeles Times
As Good As You is a quietly poignant film.

Richard Propes

This tale of a lesbian's frantic search for love of any kind is very stale stuff, and made worse by one of those from-indie-hell, bad singer-songwriter music soundtracks.
