“A sweet and scatterbrained little comedy that pours its fizzy bottle of champagne problems into a charming — and surprisingly relatable! — sketch of fatherhood in motion.” – David Ehrlich, indieWire

“Keaton’s nuanced performance in this smart, tender comedy proves that Hollywood still has room for complex, emotionally rich leading men.” – Rex Reed, Observer

“A crowd-pleasing family comedy so frankly observed that you can imagine the first draft being scribbled on the back of a therapy bill.” – Amy Nicholson, New York Times
