Solondz loves revisiting his creations (he did it in Life During Wartime and, glancingly, Palindromes). Alas, he never improves on the originals. August 14, 2016 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The best story involves Danny DeVito as a screenwriting teacher, which allows Solondz, an adjunct professor at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, to vent his spleen at the ignorance and arrogance of his students. July 14, 2016 | Full Review…

It's heavy material, but Solondz shapes it all into an epic joke about the folly of living a good life. July 8, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

While every story is razor-sharp, the Danny DeVito segment is particularly poignant in its depiction of film schools' toxic environment... February 3, 2020 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

At the end of the day, Solondz puts all the charm and sweetness of the Wiener-Dog on this Daschund, but it is too much of a burden to fill up the 90 minute running time. November 15, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Blackly funny at times, it looks terrific - but basically goes to show that life's a b---h. And then you die. November 19, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
