"My Name is Buttons is a gem of a movie, a timely kick in the pants for the Prozac Generation and easily the best $10,000 feature I've ever seen. Written, directed and produced by John Merriman and Courtney Davis (oh, and they act in it, too), Buttons is by turns acid, angry, hilarious and sweet. Combining social satire and slapstick to skewer today's true Axis of Evil: Psychiatrists, Pharmaceutical Companies and Political Complacency. In the age of 100 million dollar movies that triumph by saying nothing at all, Davis and Merriman have the guts to traffic in a currency that really counts: comedy, content, and conviction."
