The result is indigestible. Full Review |

|
For a Cinderella story, it's sorely without magic. Full Review |
||
|
|
The brazen sentimentality at work here -- while effective in the context of what some might call "a chick flick"-- doesn't give the material much weight. Full Review |

Lake is a rather chilly and distinctly unpersuasive presence. Full Review |

You'll be saying 'No, Ricki!' instead of 'Go Ricki!' Full Review |

Completely artificial and charmless

An average Hollywood romantic comedy. Full Review |

|
2/5 |
A waste of Fraser and MacLaine, utter failure of tone.

It would take a far defter comedic hand to successfully transform Woolrich's story from bleak and horrifying to warm and fuzzy. Full Review |

Benjamin should be ashamed of making such a dog. Full Review |
||
|
3/4 |
While I can't help wondering how this movie might have turned out had the filmmakers stuck with Woolrich's noir vision, it's difficult to complain here. Full Review |

|
2/4 |
Lake, in the central role, seems distracted and only nominally interested in what's going on around her. Full Review |

2/4 |
This film mistakes action for energy, ridiculous circumstances for comedy, and a mismatched male/female pairing for romance. Full Review |
||
|
1.5/5 |
The plot remains joyless in its contrivances. Full Review |

|
1.5/4 |
Beware the hideous musical number, in which MacLaine and Lake attempt to sing "The Sunny Side of the Street". Full Review |
