Critic Reviews

  • Desson Thomson, Washington Post

    You feel embarrassed for the actors and the crew that had to film them.

  • James Berardinelli, ReelViews

    Vacillates uncertainly between unfunny farce and ineffectual melodrama.

  • Brian Webster, Apollo Guide

    Provides a decent-looking transfer of the movie in its original 2.35:1 aspect ratio widescreen format.

  • Jeffrey Westhoff, Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)

    What eventually makes "A Smile Like Yours" unbearable is, like a phone call from a vapid neighbor, the blessed thing just won't end!

  • Elspeth Haughton, Apollo Guide

    Writer-director Keith Samples has pieced together scraps of bad sperm jokes, an inane 'rags-to-riches' story line, and a boring extra-marital affair for 'intrigue.'

    Okay, not much substance really at all. It definitely was not a laugh-out-loud comedy, it was cute at times. I didn't feel connected to the characters or invested in the story.
