Reviews
"It's possible that Maggie Gyllenhaal will never become a major star, but there isn't an American actress in movies today who holds the screen with as much deep-seated soul."
- Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
"Why aren't there more American movies like this? I mean smart, unpretentious, sophisticated, un-condescending and cheap."
- Carina Chocano, Los Angeles Times
"Happy Endings is unabashedly sentimental (cheekily couched in a black-comic guise), with Roos acting as a sort of benevolent god over his characters."
- Kimberley Jones, Austin Chronicle
"Extremely pleasurable and well worth seeing."
- Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle
