Just saw it last night, quite refreshing in the midst of the summer blockbuster season.

Critic Reviews

File this one in the same category of edgy Long Island comedies as the equally smart 2009 Alec Baldwin film "Lymelife."Full Review

New York Post

It's manipulative, yes, but clever and persuasive in its manipulations.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

This is one of the smarter, more honest scripts to be filmed in quite some time. And Jenna Fischer, star of "The Office," gives one of the smarter, more honest - and vulnerable, and tough - performances by an actress on the big screen in an even longer stretch.Full Review

Steven Rea
Philadelphia Inquirer

What writer-director Michael J. Weithorn, a sitcom vet, gets right is the Long Island vibe, the New York smarts crossed with small-town insularity. If the film takes too long to reach its rather soft denouement, Fischer makes Laura's awakening convincing.Full Review

Los Angeles Times

Weithorn, a sitcom vet whose credits include "Ned and Stacey" and "The King of Queens," makes sure even the quiet moments in the unassuming "A Little Help" move things forward. And that every one of Laura's missteps is in the right direction.Full Review
