Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Newcomer Castle-Hughes' unaffected, confident turn makes it credible our heroine might retain her determination and self-worth despite serial setbacks.
– Dennis Harvey,
Variety,
22 Jul 2008
fresh:
The filmmaker knows how to seduce an audience without making it feel had. When a movie's this likable, it would take a very tough crowd not to be pleased.
– David Ansen,

fresh:
The most effective and moving female empowerment movie in awhile.
– Eric Harrison,
Houston Chronicle,
3 Jul 2003
rotten:
[The story] is so simple that the audience gets ahead of it from the beginning.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,

rotten:
The film is closer to a feminist tract. And, like all propaganda, it wants to do all of your thinking for you.
