Ronnie Scheib Variety Feb 23, 2012
Andreas, working from Jesse Archer's reductive script, knows how to pump energy into tired ideas and turn twinkly stereotypes into high-camp icons. Go to Full Review Joseph Jon Lanthier Slant Magazine Nov 7, 2010

Violet Tendencies betrays both its camp roots and its grown-up goals. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Nov 5, 2010
2/5
If you're paying attention, you won't be able to ignore the scattershot plotting, the synthetic emotions, the highly variable quality of the acting and the woodenness of Jesse Archer's script when it isn't dealing in one-liners. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Sep 26, 2020

While the tone may feel inconsistent, the performances remain remarkably steady. Go to Full Review Sarah Boslaugh Playback:stl Jan 22, 2012

... the road to love is strewn with one-liners and musical interludes, as least if you're seeking it in a Casper Andreas (A Four Letter World, The Big Gay Musical) film. Go to Full Review Fr. Chris Carpenter Movie Dearest Apr 29, 2011

Chock full of relatable, well-drawn characters, razor-sharp dialogue and witty observations...(Mindy) Cohn's performance and those of the supporting cast are great. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Dec 30, 2013 As I told Mindy Cohn when I drunkenly ran into her at a bar years ago, I've loved her my whole life! So, when a friend told me she had a movie on Netflix, I had to check it out. Sure, it feels very much like an independent film, but it has some really nice moments in it. Honestly, I felt that when it focused on Violet (Mindy), the movie was at its best, but when it veered to some of her friends and their story lines, I lost interest. See more Apr 21, 2012 A little vulgar, maybe unrealistic, but Mindy Cohn and Samuel Whitten, among others, were great. See more Feb 2, 2012 In the hands of a less able director and an inauthentic cast, this movie colud have lapsed into parody with poorly portrayed stereotypes morphing into characterures. Thankfully this does not happen. Mindy Cohn is superbly cast as Violet and she is ably supported. An interesting and entertaining variation of the classic tale of the search for love. See more Jan 1, 2012 Quite funny, but also full of cliches. See more Nov 23, 2011 Mondy Cohn shines in this gay camp film about fag hags. See more Nov 5, 2011 This movie did a good job of pairing realistic characters and conflicts with a handful of sexy fun. At first glance this movie is quite standard, but at it's core, I think there are good messages in it. Some things were almost too perfect (you know, the whole "everyone is happy in the end" bit), but that's not that bad a thing - though it may not be entirely realistic. I did enjoy watching this, but probably won't watch it again. It just wasnt that memorable or special. Still, I liked the story - and totally related to the main character - so that was a plus. No major complaints. If you watch the trailer and think it looks good, then watch it, you'll probably enjoy it to some extent. But obviously, it's not for everyone. What did this movie teach me? I need to find me a unicorn!!! See more Read all reviews
