Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
I was hot to trot for the exit halfway through, but a dogged sense of duty kept me stuck in an endless present.

rotten:
Bullock's decision to play Kate as a morose kill-joy is particularly inexplicable. She's getting letters from some hot architect through a hole in the time-space continuum, and yet her expression remains impassive, her voice flat, her outlook maudlin.

The Lake House demands a serious suspension of disbelief, but if you accept it as a romantic bit of nonsense, it has its pleasures.

I have always felt that both Ms. Bullock's patented expressions of anguish and Mr. Reeves' stoical minimalism have been somewhat underrated.

I can't believe that even the most rabid chick-flick masochists wouldn't gag on it.
