Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Moves in such odd plot directions and descends into such message-mongering moralism that its good qualities are obscured.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,
31 Oct 2002
fresh:
A rare comedy of manners, witty, wicked and worldly, and one of the best movies of the year.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
1 Nov 2002
rotten:
Pompous and garbled.
– Lisa Schwarzbaum,
Entertainment Weekly,
1 Nov 2002
rotten:
The direction, by George Hickenlooper, has no snap to it, no wiseacre crackle or hard-bitten cynicism.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,

fresh:
Acting is what sustains the unstable plot lines.
