Reception
Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, reports that 30% of 10 surveyed critics gave the film a positive review; the average rating was 4.71/10. Metacritic rated it 48/100 based on five reviews. Peter Debruge of Variety called it "vaguely titillating" but of questionable interest to audiences. A. O. Scott of The New York Times likened it to R-rated O. Henry stories and said it is more disciplined than Swanberg's previous films. Mark Holcomb of The Village Voice wrote that it "is only sporadically a good sex comedy". Diego Costa of Slant Magazine rated it 2/4 stars and wrote that mumblecore filmmakers' search for authenticity has led their films to become artificial. Jason Bailey of DVD Talk rated it 2/5 stars and called it "little more than a series of sniggering, mediocre dirty jokes".
