Critic Reviews
-
John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter
Making romance a big part of the mix dooms a movie already saddled with one of the worst titles in recent memory.
-
Kyle Smith, New York Post
Romantic comedies are often as contrived and irritating as "Loosies," but few feature a lead character so lacking in appeal.
-
Ronnie Scheib, Variety
Facinelli's transformation from feckless charmer to committed caretaker seems contrived, leaving the film feeling like a series of stitched-together scenes with little internal drive.
-
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Not a great movie, but satisfying enough to hold attention and win your affection -- a rare blue-plate combo on today's overcrowded menu of movie chaos that sticks to your ribs and stays there.
-
Nick Schager, Village Voice
Loosies has a bevy of colorful character actors -- from Michael Madsen and William Forsythe to Vincent Gallo and Joe Pantoliano -- but little character.
