Reviews for A Simple Twist of Fate
Proves that the good life cannot be purchased but must be patiently constructed out of love and devotion.
Steve Martin is at it again remaking classic stories in new, fresh, and wonderful ways.
Inconsistent tone. Not quite a drama, definitely not a comedy. But it's not balanced, it's either/or.
