Andrew Barker, Variety: Maria Sole Tognazzi's romantic comedy proves more effective as a resort showcase than as an emotionally involving narrative. Read more

Randy Cordova, Arizona Republic: There is a warm naturalness to the dialogue, and Buy is wonderfully evocative. Read more

Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader: Flatly told and highly familiar. Read more

Tom Long, Detroit News: One of those rambling European films with little plot but lots of atmosphere ... Read more

Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times: Putting her seemingly content protagonist through very low-key emotional crises, director Maria Sole Tognazzi gently explores what it means to be unmarried, middle-aged and female. Read more

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: You won't find much heft in Maria Sole Tognazzi's Italian dramedy, but it'll make for a decent mini-vacation if you could use a brief escape. Read more
