This might have been tailor-made by director Pollack to ease Ford into more straightforwardly romantic territory.

Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten

Looks more like a case of random minds.

Rick Groen, Globe and Mail
Rotten

Almost everything that is wrong with the Hollywood system can be found here.

Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Rotten

Enormously boring.

Tom Keogh, Film.com

Sydney Pollack can't locate any kind of chemistry between Ford and Thomas, whose first and last scenes together are especially labored.

John Hartl, Seattle Times
