It's essentially a vehicle for a dedicated cast, but occasionally it's more than that.
John Hartl, Seattle Times

Weaver makes Linda her own, alternating between off-putting brashness, engaging honesty and bursts of spontaneous, childlike behavior.
Claudia Puig, USA Today
Rotten
Lack of dramatic intensity is all the more surprising considering the emotional clout of helmer Marc Evans' two best movies, the chilling Resurrection Man and scarefest My Little Eye.
Derek Elley, Variety
Fresh
Overly forced, a shade too whimsical, but filling a void other words and other movies haven't the nerve or errant taste to confront.
Ty Burr, Boston Globe
