- 60The New York TimesStephen HoldenThe New York TimesStephen HoldenIt is cleverly conceived, well acted and seasoned with blips of mildly acidic wit.
- 50The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe romantic dilemmas suffered by these twentysomethings may be universal, but their naive attempts to address them are hard to buy.
- 50VarietyRonnie ScheibVarietyRonnie ScheibIn the central role, first-time feature helmer Alexander Poe may trigger sheepish identification among the neurotic with the protag's vaguely ridiculous reactions. While his character registers as white-bread bland, strong performances from the two "exes" save this indie from a surfeit of self-deprecating charm.
- 40New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanNew York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanEven taken on its own, this story of Graham (Poe), a single New Yorker feeling his way toward adulthood, feels like a promising college project that wasn't ready for the real world.
- 30Village VoiceVillage VoiceThe callow behavior that characterizes Ex-Girlfriends' lead would be less maddening had writer/director/star Alexander Poe firmly decided how to portray the bedroom follies of youth.
- 20Time OutTime OutThe characters are flat; the voiceover is awkward.
- 12Slant MagazineChuck BowenSlant MagazineChuck BowenThe romantic quest that's meant to drive the film is meaningless because Alexander Poe has extended empathy to no one besides himself.
