Review of Singles (1992) by David Ansen for Newsweek — 19 Jul 2007
Sometimes it works, but more often than not, it's just cute. In the editing, the characters, general style and attitude, Crowe seems to have drawn heavily from Slacker for inspiration, but in his insecure reliance on traditional narrative and Hollywood convention, he undermines his more interesting experimentations.
As a result, Singles winds up being a date movie with pretensions.
