Critic Reviews

  • Ed Park, Village Voice

    The film's problems are too numerous to list, but look for the boom mic at approximately 45m.

  • Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

    The timeliness of this subject, a lively cast and an unfamiliar setting -- Columbus, Ohio -- help offset heavy-handed melodramatics and plotting.

  • V.A. Musetto, New York Post

    The result is earnest but not terribly original.

  • Anita Gates, New York Times

    An amiable but highly didactic romantic drama.

  • Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter

    Unhappily, the film would embarrass a first-year film student.
