Reviews
Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun - Times on 21 May 2004, the plot resembles the plot of a soap opera. Some scenes were confusing; the film acts like a collection of notes of the director. The illustrations are strong, but the style of the dialogues would weaken its effect.
Sheri Linden described the film in the magazine The Hollywood Reporter on 7 May 2004 as an " unfulfilled promise ". The central love story is not interesting enough. The presentation by Jonathan Tucker was praised as " fresh" and "convincing". Rachael Leigh Cook would lead to " restlessness " in their rather cliched role.
Peter Travers scoffed at the Rolling Stone magazine on 18 May 2004, the act leg hold more Substränge than an entire season of the television series The OC. He praised the presentation by Jonathan Tucker as "very good" ( "very fine" ).
