Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
It appears to have been cobbled together from all the story lines the network sponsors wouldn't approve.
– Terry Lawson,
Detroit Free Press,

rotten:
A generic, below-par chick flick.
– Jonathan Foreman,
New York Post,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
The filmmakers have crafted a motion picture that should appeal to members of both sexes.
– James Berardinelli,
ReelViews,

rotten:
The scenes feel forced, producing episodic plotting and calling attention to the characters' superficiality.
– Jeff Strickler,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,
6 Nov 2002
rotten:
Not possessing much in the way of a character arc, saints are boring to watch and impossible to act.
