Variety | Amy DawesAdd Critic to Favorites

Arrives carrying more baggage than a Greyhound bus, which may distract moviegoers from what is a silly but still an enjoyably written and performed romantic comedy. Read the full review

USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites

An embarrassing debacle...the rare movie that never seems to take off, but also never seems to end. It tries hard to titillate, but ends up making audiences want to avert their eyes.Read the full review

The New York Times | Dana StevensAdd Critic to Favorites

Buried in the slow, talky, inanities that the two stars exchange are some potentially interesting ideas about female sexual self-assertion and male surrender, but neither the actors nor the filmmakers have any notion about how to explore them. Read the full review

Slate | David EdelsteinAdd Critic to Favorites

The movie is bafflingly boring and ridiculous. Its loginess is exacerbated by the pacing of the writer-director, Martin Brest.Read the full review

Washington Post | Desson ThomsonAdd Critic to Favorites

Guys, I'm telling you: Don't go to this movie! It's "Chasing Amy" with guns! You're walking into a trap! This is for fans of the holy couple, but they already know that. Read the full review

ReelViews | James BerardinelliAdd Critic to Favorites

Some of the dialogue is astonishingly awful. Sex and relationships are constantly likened to animal interaction.Read the full review

Wall Street Journal | Joe MorgensternAdd Critic to Favorites

The worst movie -- all right, the worst allegedly major movie -- of our admittedly young century. More stupefying follies may come, but it's impossible to imagine how they'll beat this one for staggering idiocy, fatuousness or pretension.Read the full review

The Onion (A.V. Club) | Keith PhippsAdd Critic to Favorites

Writer-director Martin Brest lends the film a professional sheen, and his stars (who some rumors suggest may have become romantically involved) have charisma to spare, but the film has all the charge and momentum of a Paxil ad. Read the full review

The Hollywood Reporter | Kirk HoneycuttAdd Critic to Favorites

The film lacks a controlling point of view to guide an audience through so improbable a tale. Nothing in the movie is funny -- aside from giggles provoked by misfired jokes -- or romantic or dramatic. Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Manohla DargisAdd Critic to Favorites

Nearly as unwatchable as it is unpronounceable.Read the full review
