Press
“...a classic Sundance comedy…”
“...Your Next Female-Led Comedy Obsession”
SCREEN ANARCHY / Martin Kudlac
“Soft Boil shows alluring potential...challenges a neurotypical perspective and subverts social norms through self-deprecation and absurdity.”
TAXI DRIVERS / Sabrina Colangeli
“Soft Boil captures a generational cross-section with insight, immediacy, and brilliance....Like a much more contemporary Bridget Jones…”
“...some pretty hilarious comedic material…”
MACGUFFIN OR MEANING / Alise Chaffins
“...a clever, hilarious pilot that takes an entertaining look at the hard work of adulting.”
“...full of comedic nuances but also an intimate observation of a woman’s lived experience...Camille Wormser, who plays [Lulu], does a phenomenal job..."
THE TV SCHOLAR NEWSLETTER / Michel Ghanem
“Soft Boil is funny and goofy—Wormser’s theatre-kid energy wins you over by the end of the episode…”
HIGH ON FILMS / Julian Malandruccolo
“Goldberg’s command of the camera and edit…give the sense that Lulu’s world is a reflection of real social anxieties, intensified and held together by her own willingness to reciprocate that unforeseen energy with less deadpan than those who seem to have it all figured out.”
