Critics' Reviews

70
Washington Post: Ann Hornaday
A tame, fitfully amusing and generally inoffensive romantic comedy.Read Full Review »
50
Village Voice: Laura Sinagra
Our counselors' lawyer-ese is illegally bland, and their committee-penned banter meticulously Botoxed.Read Full Review »
50
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
Then they annoy us by trying to deny the attraction while the plot spins its wheels, pretending to be about something.Read Full Review »
50
ReelViews: James Berardinelli
Laws of Attraction is a standard-issue romantic comedy that's missing a key ingredient: the attraction.Read Full Review »
50
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lisa Schwarzbaum
Operates on such outdated, unimaginative conventions of movie chemistry that Moore and Brosnan end up appearing older and stodgier than necessary.Read Full Review »
50
USA Today: Mike Clark
With tangy Fisher equaling the leads in a sometimes scene-stealing role as Moore's mom, the actors emerge unscathed. Brosnan's part, in fact, is among the actor's most convincing non-Bond characters.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Dana Stevens
Laws of Attraction, like the somewhat better "Intolerable Cruelty," seems desperately unsure of itself at crucial moments.Read Full Review »
38
Philadelphia Inquirer: Steven Rea
Laughably predictable and lamentably unfunny, Laws of Attraction practically creaks from the effort exerted by its cast, straining to bring snap and panache to a hackneyed exercise. Sno Ball, anyone?Read Full Review »
30
Washington Post: Sara Gebhardt
The plot, the dialogue and the main characters' love connection are basically mind-numbing.Read Full Review »
30
LOS ANGELES TIMES: Manohla Dargis
Unlike Tracy and Hepburn, the loving and loathing here are absent music and wit and tend to imply that what Moore's character really needs is a good frolic.Read Full Review »
