Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
An entertaining enough oddity, goosed by the added interest of its report on the high level of acting talent from Belgium.
– Susan Stark,
Detroit News,
20 Jul 2001
rotten:
Who in the world is in charge of foreign film Oscar nominations? And what hints of greatness did they see in this artlessly benign little comedy?
– Chris Vognar,
Dallas Morning News,
26 Jul 2001
rotten:
A funny idea in search of a funny execution.
– Eleanor Ringel Gillespie,
Atlanta Journal-Constitution,
27 Jul 2001
rotten:

– Louis B. Parks,
Houston Chronicle,
27 Jul 2001
rotten:
