A.O. Scott
The New York Times
A dreary crash of malapropisms and slapstick maimings wrapped very loosely around a murder mystery. Full Review

Slate
The script plays goofy games, stopping the action for Tarantino-style small talk; piling on alternate, "Rashomon"-style flashbacks; and divulging its characters' secrets in no particular order. Full Review

I watched Mona. I felt like drowning. Full Review
Jay Carr
Boston Globe
Executed on a pretty broad level, but if characterization is slighted, the ensemble is so rich, with such depth, that every few minutes another juicy turn keeps coming our way to divert us. Full Review
Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times
With a hilarious script and capable cast, the film puts a clever spin on the everyone-is-a-suspect plot. Full Review
