Bullock, easing into her mid-40s with box-office mojo intact, remains the star attraction as the annoyingly endearing Mary. You simply can't imagine another actor of her stature pulling it off.

Reviews for All About Steve
It's a sort of anti-romance romantic comedy, and though uneven, it's a lot smarter than most films in the genre.
09/04/09
Despite her downward-tilted head and her nattering ways, Mary really does want to connect. Watching her realize this isn't deep but it is sweet.
09/04/09
An actress should never, ever, be asked to run beside a van in red disco boots for more than about half a block, and then only if her child is being kidnapped.
09/03/09
Top CriticBut the main message ... is that movie studios think a lot of people will pay good money to see Sandra Bullock humiliate herself yet again in front of the camera.
09/04/09
This surreal creation is built around one of the most maddening and borderline unbearable characters ever conceived.
09/03/09
All About Steve, an unfunny, annoying, badly written, badly acted comic fiasco, may be the worst movie in Bullock's career.
09/02/09
Here's a scorching idea for the producers of the "Saw" franchise: a "Sandra Bullock Slapstick Comedy" death trap.
09/04/09
This is easily one of the worst films I've ever had to review.
09/04/09
Why would such talented actors as Bullock, Cooper, Thomas Haden Church and Ken Jeong sign on for something so dreadful?
09/03/09
Packaged as a romantic comedy but devoid of comedy or romance, this baffling train wreck stars Sandra Bullock as a tediously kooky constructor of crossword puzzles for a Sacramento newspaper.
09/21/09
My biggest surprise is scanning the credits and not seeing the name Wayans or Prinze Jr. anywhere.
09/03/09
Top Critic...features the singular most awful line of dialogue in a movie this year...
09/03/09
Oops, sorry, we're not supposed to think of Mary as mentally ill, psychologically unbalanced, or any of those painful things, just full of gumption and sunny determination.
09/04/09
Top CriticThere’s nothing wrong with All About Steve that a rewrite couldn’t fix, as long as the rewrite involved a different writer, a different character and a different story.
09/04/09
Top CriticNot without its good bits. Even if you have to watch some supposedly nice guys be mean to get to them.
09/04/09
A screwball comedy missing more than a few crucial screws.
09/04/09
There's no footing in reality. Nothing about it feels authentic: not the blathering Mary, not the lifeless secondary characters, not the bromide-happy dialogue or the plot that twists less often than it spasms.
09/04/09
[A] refreshingly quirky comedy.
09/10/09
...this is, without a doubt, one of the biggest wastes of celluloid this year.
