Director Linda Yellen spins this study of four couples as they struggle to maintain their relationships. Middle-aged divorcée and landlord Katharine (Lynn Redgrave) is completely smitten with her live-in lover Rick (Harry Connick, Jr.). She loves throwing parties, and on one Halloween she hosts a dinner for some wildly dissimilar guests: her tenets Sandra (Cindy Crawford) and Paul (Jamey Sheridan) are conservative professionals, while fellow building dwellers Marta (Monica Keena) and Billy

It's a banal little indie ensemble comedy.
It's partly the characters and partly the performers who are responsible for generating more feelings in the afterlife than the film's Weehawken Six achieve in here and now.
The story, such as it is, is hackneyed mush of the most contrived and patronizing kind.
One of those exercises in romantic whimsy that misses its mark: It's alternately sappy and uncomfortably harsh.
Reveals [Yellen's] mastery of artifice and theatricality in the service of eliciting genuine emotion and insight into human nature.
A muddy, cliché-ridden sudsfest that lurches uncertainly between comedy and soap opera without finding its emotional or visual footing.
Somewhere buried deep lurks a potentially interesting film.
It is like an anthology that offers only one story that clicks.
We grownups need more of this kind of silly, sweet, knowing romantic movie.
In the end it's simply weak.
See it now or wait for cable? It's a fine Line.
The results here are decidedly mixed.
It's telling ... that the most compelling performance in the film comes from Cindy Crawford, making her long-unawaited return to film after 1995's Fair Game.
You might think Weehawken is the epitome of dorkdom after the chimpanzee-less Line makes you choke on its old-fashioned, spiritless dust.
A low-key entertaining comedy about four couples who fear losing their partners to others.
Offbeat little film has it's moments and a wonderful cast, but ultimately doesn't work as a whole. It tackles too many story lines and found the editing to be distracting.
