Critic Reviews
-
Lou Lumenick, New York Post
A mild cross between The Big Chill and Sex and the City, this English-language German oddity is a romantic comedy passing through on its way to video.
-
Dave Kehr, New York Times
It's tolerable but forgettable.
-
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
Not exactly terrible, merely stale and pointless.
-
John Anderson, Newsday
Venus and Mars has nothing to do with the ubiquitous John Gray book. And is, essentially, about the inevitable redeeming power of love. Which, unfortunately, is not what one is feeling when the credits finally roll.
-
Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
This tale of twentysomethings manages to feel false every step of the way.
