Sentimental yet insensate, this forgotten '04 trifle is Burns at his worst ...

Scott Brown, Entertainment Weekly
Fresh

Burns turns in a nicely understated performance; but it's David Krumholtz, as Abe, who's the backbone of the movie.

V.A. Musetto, New York Post

Looking for Kitty offers moments of striking insight amid the inevitable self-indulgence.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Fresh

A disgruntled New York City private investigator forms an unlikely bond with a high school baseball coach from upstate in Edward Burns's latest exercise in maleness.

Laura Kern, New York Times
Rotten

Give Edward Burns at least a little credit for perseverance, because just about any other writer-director-actor who released a movie every couple of years to critical shrugs and audience indifference would've long since hung up his megaphone.
