POSITIVE
... a chick flick with substance as well as style. (The Hollywood Reporter)
... sexy, touching and astringently funny ... (Rolling Stone)
... starts out with the materials of an ordinary movie and becomes a rather special one. (Chicago Sun-Times)
Collette, MacLaine and Diaz are exceptional, and the mix of humor and heartbreak is perfectly calibrated. (TV Guide)
... the joy of this unassuming, generous film is that it never sells out its characters' desires or ours. (The New York Times)
NEGATIVE
... it pretends to be the high-minded drama it's not. (Washington Post)
... a conventional picture, one that advances no out-of-the-ordinary ideas or feelings. (Variety)
