Critic Reviews

Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Where Holland falters is in bringing the movie to a satisfying conclusion.
-
Ray Conlogue, Globe and Mail
It doesn't work, but Otto performs heroically, sustaining the character of Julie to the movie's final moments.
-
Oz, eFilmCritic.com
At the halfway stage I was convinced I was watching a film that would blow audiences away, but it just couldn't hold things at that standard for the full running time.
-
Liz Braun, Jam! Movies
Part lousy TV movie-of-the-week, part bodice-ripper, part emotional hooey.
-
Shlomo Schwartzberg, Boxoffice Magazine
An unmoving, cold affair of the heart.
