Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times Apr 19, 2019
[Amara Cash's] frenetic style is the best part of "Daddy Issues," but it can't distract the audience from the film's larger problems. Go to Full Review
Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter Jul 21, 2018
Manning's straightforward take on relationship dynamics proves both refreshing and empowering, making Jasmine the center of every character's attention and desire. Go to Full Review
Rich Cline Gay Essential Oct 8, 2019
There's an engagingly dreamy tone to this offbeat queer romantic comedy, continually wrong-footing the audience as the plot twists and turns around complex, likeable characters. Go to Full Review

3/5

Albus G Jul 19, 2018 This movie is brilliant. From the writing to the direction, and especially to the art direction that makes this story feel almost otherworldly. An indie film at it's finest, I can't wait to see where this film goes - hope it doesn't get skipped over. See more
