Reception
[edit]Courtney Howard of Variety wrote that while the film contains many "preventable first-time-filmmaker mistakes", it also has "glimmers of potential" that "occasionally catch the light".[3] Katie Walsh of the Los Angeles Times wrote that while the film's script "drags in parts and spends too much time rehashing the same issues", with a "bit of finesse", Walting could be a "promising new voice".[1]
Jeffrey Anderson of Common Sense Media rated the film 3 stars out of 5 and called it "unpolished but heartfelt".[4] Frank Schenk of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that while the film is "certainly affecting in spots", it "ultimately seems more like a well-intentioned PSA than organic drama."[2]
