you'll be delighted but not entirely surprised by Patti Harrison's stellar work in "Together Together," a movie that gives her the space to be hilarious, yes, but also heartbreaking and human
occasionally one-note and overwrought, this Sundance entry heartwarmingly acknowledges a male biological clock, with Ed Helms and Patti Harrison charmingly leading the way
Nikole Beckwith's comedy is warm, smart and funny; Ed Helms does some of the best work of his career, and Patti Harrison is a revelation; Together Together has plenty of big laughs, yet always makes sure to treat the issue of surrogacy with seriousness
in the end though, this is a bland effort; It's pleasant enough, but lacks the vitality to be more than mildly funny as comedy as well as the insight to build emotional heft as drama
a worthwhile, enjoyable rom-com; A triumph of humanity and hilarity from Nikole Beckwirth. The film is original, fresh and funny and has a confidence which allows the emotional depths to be explored without ever being exploitative
"Together Together" is a remarkably restrained spin on a "quirky comedy", celebrating platonic love and the many strange ways that we find family for ourselves -- and it's never quite what you'd expect
