What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith  For I have become uncomfortably numb. | 15 |  |
| Die Burger Laetitia Pople 'n Rukwind vie jou gemoed. | 15 | |
| Cape Times David Rooney Melancholy love story. | 20 | |
| ScreenIt Jim Judy There's not much to the story outside the abundant symbolism and underlying themes. The author tries to reconnect with his ex, then has a one-night stand, and then returns home. That's about it, and while I can't say I was ever bored, I did have a ''is that all there is?'' reaction at the end, along with a ''I'm still thinking about it'' statement when asked if I liked it or not. | 12 |  |
