Were you thinking "deaf kids", "sinkhole"? No? I defy you to write a dumber screenplay. Full Review |

|
1/4 |
'I'm going to eat you like a mountain lion,' says the sex-starved Bullock as she attacks Cooper in his van, moments after meeting him, in one of several appalling scenes that represent director Phil Traill's idea of cute. Full Review |

1/5 |
Her most irritating and unfunniest film to date. Full Review |
||
|
2.5/5 |
Despite the cringe early on there is a validation about finding your emotional and intellectual match, not just the fantasy dreamboat. Full Review |
||
|
1/5 |
The taint of desperation lies so heavily on the entire exercise. Full Review |
||
|
1/5 |
One of the leading candidates for worst film of 2009. Full Review |
||
|
|
A sad excuse for a film which meshes too many ideas without sticking to one, leaving Sandra Bullock once again flailing in a ridiculous role. Full Review |

|
|
Disaster is an eight letter word that aptly describes this grossly misjudged, overplayed, unfunny comedy about a hyper crossword constructor who stalks her blind date. Filled with low points worth of eye-rolling... Full Review |

0/4.0 |
An unmitigated disaster. Full Review |
||
 3/4 |
If it didn't come from a major studio, I would think the film is a satire of romantic comedies, or at least some kind of avant-garde experiment in testing the limits of audience identification Full Review |

|
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. Full Review |
||

1/5 |
... hopelessly harebrained ... Full Review |
||
|
1/4 |
A good idea lurks in the latest Sandra Bullock comedy but it quickly falls into a deep hole. Full Review |
||
|
|
Four stages of Acceptance Of 2-Star Movie: 1) Embarrassed for lead character. 2) Embarrassed for actor playing lead character. 3) Admiration for movie's all-out, gawky commitment to awkward comedy. 4) Annoyance with usual rom-com schmaltz-injections. Full Review |

[A] refreshingly quirky comedy. Full Review |

0/4 |
Movies don't get much worse. Full Review |

|
It gets into McConaughey territory, worse than The Ugly Truth. Full Review |
||
|
1/5 |
A talented director might have made Bullock seem like a comic genius, but Phil Traill has no control over tone, leaving the audience unsure whether to laugh or cry. Full Review |
||
|
2/10 |
It fails at everything it attempts to do. There's simply no point for it to exist. Full Review |

|
5/10 |
Sandra Bullock give it that old college try but the movie still flops Full Review |
