Reception
[edit]Chris Packham of The Village Voice called the film "sharp" and "funny", and wrote that the narrative "hinges at every turn on moments of human connection, scary confrontations other films would resolve with violence finding unexpected (and probably unlikely) detours into humor and empathy."[1]
Annlee Ellingson of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the film is "sincere but relies on obvious tropes", and that "Amid familiar jokes that fall flat, unaided by awkward pacing, Brian absorbs these life lessons with the earnestness of a Muppet."[2]
