Critic Reviews
-
Loren King, Boston Globe
Neither the comedy nor the romance is strong enough in "Immigration Tango'' to offer any improvement on Peter Weir's similar, and better, 1990 film "Green Card.''
-
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
"Immigration Tango" is like a slow-dance with your sister - perfunctory, awkward and without a hint of heat.
-
Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
A minor, sometimes likable romp through miscellaneous narrative clichés, all of them rendered with the snug medium shots and predetermined character arcs that are coin of the realm on the tube.
-
Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
The stuff of sitcoms. Complications, of course, ensue, but they're exactly the complications you expect, with exactly the results.
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
This lame sex comedy doesn't exactly add much to the debate over illegal immigrants.
