A different class of misfits.

"There's some nice filmmaking tucked inside WHAT GOES UP... The antagonism that comes to a boil between Campbell and Tess gives the film some bristling tension."
—Manohla Dargis (The New York Times)

"A nifty little tragicomedy... director and co-writer Jonathan Glatzer handles his talented cast well. The movie is dark, droll and sentimental in roughly the correct proportions. Worth seeing."
—Andrew O'Hehir (Salon)
