The Happy Sad Ratings & Reviews
AALBC.com
Kam Williams
You almost need a score card to keep track of all the coupling, uncoupling, and re-coupling, but the out-of-the-closet antics are amusing enough to intrigue.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
Deadly earnestness and sex don't mix well at the movies.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
An engaging look at a pair of New York couples whose love lives intersect, crisscross, circle and backtrack in hip and provocative ways.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Romantic confusion and youthful insecurity drive "The Happy Sad," a New York relationship roundelay as restless as the city itself.
Movie Dearest
Fr. Chris Carpenter
Despite a fairly obvious metaphor that matters of sexuality are far from "black and white," the film is refreshing in its lack of racial politics. But, despite very good performances, the movie falls short.

Brian Juergens
It may have the trappings of your everyday NYC indie, but it stands apart for exploring love and lust in a world where sexuality and race aren't the sources of the drama.
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
Ken Urban, adapting his own play, fumbles at injections of urban, and decidedly not urbane, levity, in addition to telegraphing entire subplots.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Sexy and soapy, this modern-day romance about sexually adventurous couples mixing things up is a gem.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Evans directs energetically, and the personable actors help to keep us involved, but the picture skims stubbornly along the surface.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Strong acting and occasional dives into deeper territory redeem this somewhat contrived chamber piece.
Village Voice
Ernest Hardy
The cast is terrific-a uniformly perfect combination of eye candy and talent-and the script is filled with wonderfully raw, discomfiting conversations ...
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Evans' film is one of the rare examples depicting people that exist in a recognizable environment, each struggling, as we all do, to achieve that tenuous idea we perceive to be happiness, and the sadness that must accompany in order to appreciate it.
Film Journal International
David Noh
An intriguing urban subject is completely done in by a dreary, banal script, making you wonder why we should care about these wannabe hipsters.
