Critic Reviews
-
Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee
'Synthetic' is the best description of this well-meaning, beautifully produced film that sacrifices its promise for a high-powered star pedigree.
-
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A smart, compelling drama.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
The film is worth seeing for its honest heart and for the magnificent acting.
-
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Though it flirts with bathos and pathos and the further Oprahfication of the world as we know it, it still cuts all the way down to broken bone.
-
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
A movie that wafts in and out of clarity like a wavering transmission.
