Soon, however, Dana is off to London to rejoin her business-partner/fiancé Alex (Michael Brandon). Dana and Alex, and Sean and his wife all wind up together as weekend house guests of John ('60s rock performer Noel Harrison), brother of Skelly (Vanessa Redgrave). With true love looming on the horizon, Dana and Sean decide to abandon their companions for each other. The screenplay was written by Foyt and director Henry Jaglom, who took a different approach to the theme of love and affection in his autobiographical Always (1985). ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
With all the talk, Déjà Vu requires a viewer's attention and patience, but it is more than duly rewarded in the end.

Brandon Judell, Critics Inc./America Online
In a mood for a little O. Henry? Then you're in luck. In this most whimsical of romances, auteur Henry Jaglom, has again created another of his unconventional opuses
-
Philip Martin, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
...Jaglom's most accessible film to date
-
James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
Foyt's characterization runs hot and cold, to the point where it's tough to tell if Dana is merely wrestling with a divided heart or struggling with undiagnosed manic depression.

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
A magical carpet ride into the mysterious world of love.
