The Hollywood Reporter
If it weren't so good-natured overall, Anne Sewitsky's feature debut Happy, Happy might seem entirely implausible, even for a comedy. Full Review
Ann Hornaday
Washington Post
First-time director Anne Sewitsky may intend Happy, Happy as a Chekhovian chamber piece or romantic bagatelle, but her smugness about racism - and her glib symbolic resolution of the conflicts she raises - suggests an ambition that far outstrips her ability, at least for now. Full Review
Betsy Sharkey
Los Angeles Times
At times, Happy, Happy is cutting comedy at its brutal best; at times, it slips on the black ice. Still, the love of life is exuberant, the pain exquisite. Full Review

Time Out New York
Throw in some quirky interludes of a Norwegian quartet singing old American spirituals every so often, and you've got something that's truly messy, messy. Full Review
Dennis Harvey
Variety
Picture ultimately pulls off a fairly ambitious narrative agenda with a wrap both credible and crowdpleasing. Full Review
