Critic Reviews

  • Mary Elizabeth Williams, Salon.com

    Despite its fuzzy, getting-to-know-you message, the movie itself offers zero motivation for any of its protagonists.

    Good Lord, where do I start? This is unoriginal, stupid, predicatble, annoying, tedious, and not very much fun. I admittedly laughed at least twice, but this movie is mostly an aggravating bore. What saves it from getting a worse grade is that I liked how four cast members from The… More
