	Author	Review
United States	Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter	"An ambitious but failed attempt at magical realism (...) The disjointed storytelling and barely there characters make it hard to enjoy these tall tales"	NEG
United Kingdom	Tim Grierson Screendaily	"A silly soap opera stuffed with incidents — few of which are memorable (...) [It reduces] whole lives to frothy plot points and shamelessly manipulative emotional beats."	NEG
United States	Jessica Kiang Variety	"A magical realist misfire; an uncomfortably soapy high-wire act that stumbles right out the gate and never stops tumbling."	NEG
