80
Washington Post: Stephen Hunter
It's a terrific film because each of the characters is so fiercely felt.Read Full Review »
70
LOS ANGELES TIMES: Kevin Thomas
Seems at once overwhelmingly romantic and elliptical, yet all the while it has been building to a conclusion that is surprisingly affecting in the jolt of recognition it elicits.Read Full Review »

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lisa Schwarzbaum
The movie follows convoluted narrative tracks. By the end of the drowsy journey, the characters are indistinguishable from the scenery.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
Tells a pointlessly convoluted version of a love story that would really be very simple, if anyone in the movie possessed common sense.Read Full Review »

Boston Globe: Wesley Morris
These are not the marks of true cinema; they're the makings of a droopy karaoke video.Read Full Review »

Philadelphia Inquirer: Carrie Rickey
Sadly, the combination of gauzy photography and cheesy music gives the film the aura of a fragrance commercial.Read Full Review »

The New York Times: Dave Kehr
Comes to seem less a movie than a memory of movies -- or, at worst, a commercial Frankenstein's monster, sewn together to fill a perceived gap in the market.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Michael O'Sullivan
Less a tale of mysterious, tragic love than a three-way Harlequin romance.Read Full Review »

Village Voice: David Blaylock
Devolves from opaque mystery into boring melodramatics and incoherent contrivances.Read Full Review »
