The Lovers (2017)

"With its waltz-like score and farcical symmetry, The Lovers is about as full as a movie can be with a premise so thin."

""The Lovers" is a comedy of Middle American doldrums that leaves you rooting for its characters instead of smirking at them."

"The movie exhausts itself in its conception and sits inert on the screen like an undigested mass of script pages."

"Writer-director Azazel Jacobs finds buoyant comedy and touching gravity in the ashes of a relationship. Above all, give yourself over Winger and Letts-they are perfection."

"Falling with a thud between two stools, it has neither the zip nor the zaniness of farce nor the airy vivacity of the best romantic comedies."

"Having a fling with a younger, hotter artiste type may be a midlife-crisis cliché, but it's one that writer-director Jacobs invests with real flesh, blood and feeling ..."

"An unpredictably funny showcase for two very deserving actors."
