reception

Matt Zoller Seitz, one for Roger Ebert noted active film critic, not only everything about the film is retro , and Stuart Staples analog, synthesizer-heavy soundtrack'm so therefore, and if the uncredited Tindersticks Robert Pattinson accompanied, as in the role of Monte loses his will to live, he sounds like Chris Isaak .
