What others have said...
..
"Like its shy hero, Four Sheets to the Wind is so low-key it risks making little impression -- until you realize it (and he) has stealthily won viewer sympathy and affection."
- Dennis Harvey, VARIETY
..
"An uplifting yarn as a young American Indian ventures from the reservation."
- Duane Byrge, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
..
"A film with some wonderfuly oddball comedy while also being a very heart-felt statement about expanding on the person you are and finding your true voice."
- Zack Haddad, FILM THREAT
..
"A lovely tale about communication, family, forgiveness, and ’something resembling love,’ told through the story of a Native American family in small-town Oklahoma."
