Little White Lies
It's so winningly ebullient and weird that it can pull in anybody with its cheery Midwestern looniness and make them into an instant convert.

The Guardian
It's a film obviously acutely aware of its own deranged silliness, unashamedly transplanting kids movie plotting to a film aimed at adults...

Film School Rejects
Come for Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo delivering laughs and a story about friendship, but stay for Jamie Dornan singing a sad love song to the seagulls.

Barb and Star commits to its deep silliness so sweetly and completely that you can't help falling a little bit in love with them too.

Comedy being what it is, your mileage may vary, but for me the pure candy-colored exuberant silliness of Barb and Star didn't just make me laugh. It provided solace, too.
