It feels lightweight and forgettable.
Erik Lundegaard, Seattle Times
Rotten
Skitters between dull and forced, this despite the use of split screens, jaunty music and the personable Luna.

I suppose Nicotina is a gimmick film, but it's brought off with such verve it's great fun.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Rotten
While obviously not a unique or uniquely satisfying experience, the film still does the job in a pinch, and looks cool doing it.
Janice Page, Boston Globe
