April 30, 2008It was good. Sad story to it. Too bad that they both had HIV. Neither of them looked gay though. I love Scott Speedman and James Marsden. I've seen this movie twice now and still awesome.

At times The 24th Day plays like a two-man actor's workshop. As navigated by talented actors and director, it nonetheless proves a riveting ride. Full Review

Rex Reed, New York Observer
Scott Speedman and James Marsden, two talented and attractive actors who know how to hold attention, perform with depth and range. Full Review

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Despite strong performances, this drawn-out Day feels like a cross between the claustrophobic play it once was, and the R-rated After-School Special it wants to be. Full Review

Megan Lehmann, New York Post
Boasts one of the most ludicrous plots ever committed to digital video.

Dave Kehr, New York Times
Tony Piccirillo's independent video feature suggests a second-rate Off-Off Broadway play as it might have been captured on a camcorder by a doting parent. Full Review

Dennis Lim, Village Voice
No amount of fidgety editing and anxious soundtrack atonality can distract from the creakingly implausible scenario. Full Review

The battle of wits and the search for the truth goes along right up until the film's unpredictable ending. Full Review

David Noh, Film Journal International
The ceaseless twists and turns Piccirillo keeps introducing are at first intriguing, but eventually become tiresome, as if he's trying to hold our interest any way he can. Full Review
