WTTR had a limited opening this fall, and Kristen Stewart and co-stars James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo spent a lot of October promoting the picture, via press conferences and the like.
The movie has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from the critics. For instance, Roger Ebert said the following about it:
"Welcome to the Rileys" takes two old plots and makes a rather touching new plot out of them. What we’ve seen before is (1) the good man who hopes to redeem a prostitute, and (2) the frozen suburban couple who find new hope in their marriage. The film involves such characters in a story that is a little more real and involving than we expect.
Fan reactions to the film have been very good as well. In fact, one group of fans has begun a fundraiser to ensure WTTR is a part of major award show considerations.
