Good on Paper

"It's not funny enough to work as a straight comedy and not human enough to work as a dramedy."

"Should be permanently erased from the memories of anyone unlucky enough to have seen it."

"Schlesinger's comedy also gets a little too smoothed out in the process, the film playing it safe when we want it to run wild."

"Shlesinger's resistance to buffering over her prickly bits is the best thing about "Good on Paper.""

"By the end, our sympathies lie with neither duper nor the duped."

"It's a bravura portrayal of a character who's endearing, awkward and strange, in a movie that's definitely overlong but can be engagingly weird."

"Containing razor-sharp witticisms about feminine intuition, gendered sexual politics and relationships, it excels beyond its self-deprecating title."

"Despite the movie's darker aspects, Gatewood and Shlesinger escape with some decent laughs and pointed questions."
