Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Bain's film functions as a delivery system for Tolle's spiritual philosophy, and might have been the New Age equivalent of a stilted faith-based drama if not for its smart, nuanced performances.

Alas, even a prickly pro like Sutherland can't do anything to elevate a hokey self-help lecture disguised as family entertainment.

It's perfectly nutty and perfectly dull, like St. Vincent on Quaaludes.

rotten:
Milton's Secret carries a powerful and important message, but the film feels ham-fisted, cliched and overearnest at times, especially for adult viewers.

The script's anodyne lessons feel no fresher than the last dozen times enlightened moviemakers have shared them with us.
