[Aniston] has the rare gift of getting you to root for her in the most trying of circumstances, a quality that will stand her in good stead when she progresses to better material.

[Aniston] at her best can recall young Barbra Streisand in her What's Up, Doc? days.
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Rotten
Aniston doesn't need dialogue to catch Kate's quicksilver moods. It's the sitcom lines, at the service of a contrived plot, that choke her.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Insubstantial and oversweet, it still refreshes as a midsummer brain cooler.
Susan Wloszczyna, USA Today
Rotten
Aniston comes across like an imitation of a movie star instead of the real thing. She gets less attractive as the film goes on.
