Boston Globe | Jay CarrAdd Critic to Favorites

The unevenness of what surrounds the star couple is indicative of the script's inability to muster anything more than intermittent sophistication.Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Kevin ThomasAdd Critic to Favorites

The picture is never less than pleasant -- but it's not more than that often enough.Read the full review

San Francisco Chronicle | Bob GrahamAdd Critic to Favorites

Manages to do the impossible: It makes Lopez bland.Read the full review

Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites

Variety | Robert KoehlerAdd Critic to Favorites

This tale of mismatched lovebirds begins with considerable charm but eventually loses its winning ways with an excess of ridiculous elements.Read the full review
