Production notes
The Director and the financier had two very different versions of the film, including both the cut and presentation (poster, trailer, marketing, et al.). A Director's Cut still might come out at some point.
Reception
Film critic Peter Sobczynski gave the film a negative review, stating "unless your hunger for watching dimly conceived comedy-dramas focusing on obnoxious and over-privileged jerks Coming to Terms with Things was not sated with the recent "Last Weekend," most viewers will spend most of the running time wishing that they had simply stayed home and watched that "Saved by the Bell" docudrama that you DVR'd but haven't quite summoned up the courage to watch as of yet".[3]
