Critical reception
Kaya Savas of Film.Music.Media wrote "The score feels perfect for these characters and the instrumentation echoes everything these characters are. There is just the right amount of energy behind it to give the music that charm, but the organic character touches are what make the score special. Musically, this is a wonderful experience. The score is genuine and the story it’s telling is as well. This is a lovely score about people done in a way that Marcelo [Zarvos] does best."[5] Sean Salisbury of Soundtrack.Net wrote "The score by Marcelo Zarvos follows this theme as well and fits the film's mood perfectly. Simple instruments and melodies make up most of the music and the soundtrack makes for a relaxing stand-alone listening experience."[6]
Justin Chang of Variety wrote "Marcelo Zarvos' easy-listening score, usher the film in a soothingly banal direction."[7]Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter described it as "melancholic".[8]Ty Burr of The Boston Globe wrote "Marcelo Zarvos's shimmery background music sounds notes of melancholy".[9] Joseph Walsh of CineVue wrote "there is Marcelo Zarvos' score, which really does let the whole piece down, intruding like an unwelcome dinner guest at a gathering of friends."[10]
