"Incredibly generous-hearted, embracing the rich, the poor, the normal, the damaged, the eccentric, the humanity in equal measure...an ending that will have you sailing away to another world."--Dov Kornits, FilmInk
"Compulsively watchable...you don't just watch it in big bright colors
you remember it in big bright colors."--Luke Buckmaster, Guardian
