Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
As almost everyone knows by now, the early part of the year has become a dumping ground for dreadful movies. Still, Because I Said So constitutes unusually toxic waste.

rotten:
Recycling every cliche in the rom-com handbook, it's clear from the very first that Lehmann has sacrificed his characters on the altar of sappy endings. What a waste -- for everybody.

If you don't expect too much of it, you may find yourself pleasantly -- all right, soothingly -- surprised by it.

Everyone here is a caricature, and the gaps are papered over with hyperactive shtick. I haven't seen so many cakes dropped or smashed since I Love Lucy.

I hated this movie. I think it's the worst performance of Diane Keaton's career.
