Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Good writing aside, this screenplay contained the elements of two different films. One of them might have been quite persuasive.
– Susan Walker,
Toronto Star,

fresh:
Extremely well written in the fearless way of a smarty pants on a roll in the university cafeteria.
– David Gilmour,
Globe and Mail,

rotten:
Wood's fine work is undermined by the movie it's trapped in, which feels like a rough draft of itself: Skander Halim's screenplay is unnecessarily twisty and gimmicky, and some of the teenspeak dialogue falls flat, already out of date.
– Moira MacDonald,
Seattle Times,
2 Sep 2005
rotten:
The screenplay by Skander Halim falters. It's too convoluted and cloudy to have the intended effect.
– Joey Guerra,
Houston Chronicle,
2 Sep 2005
rotten:
Self-conscious, overdone, shallow, and just not up to the level of its star.
– Janice Page,
Boston Globe,
