    I was duped into thinking this was actually a gay movie. The reality is that no one in there 50's are confused about their sexuality. I understand where the movie wanted to go but I wasn't very convinced. The sex scenes made me uncomfortable and the Never Again slogan was used so...( read more) many times it was redundant!

    Some of this was just ridiculous - but some of it was indeed very funny - some wayyy weird..For over 40s..very much along the lines of another late-er in life love affair movie "Somethings Got to Give" which I liked a little better.

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

A fresh cast, but a stale story. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

Never Again swings between false sentiment and unfunny madcap comedy and, along the way, expects the audience to invest in the central relationship as some kind of marriage of true minds. full review

July 19, 2002
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Here's a case of two actors who do everything humanly possible to create characters who are sweet and believable, and are defeated by a screenplay that forces them into bizarre, implausible behavior. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

The characters are a major pain in the ass, to each other and to us. full review
