A light and bright romantic comedy.

There's a depth and caring to Still Breathing that you don't find in the usual major studio fare.

If you're in the mood for a pleasant little romantic comedy, Still Breathing hits all the right notes. Cynicism need not apply.

Sweet, moving, and with an irresistible magic all its own.

Surprisingly charming and romantic.

A gooey, swooning swatch of romantic hyperventilation, its queasy charms. And let it be said that surrendering to those charms could be as guilt-inducing as polishing off a pint of Haagen-Dazs chocolate ice cream before lunch.

Another fine attempt at breaking the mold of romantic comedy ... but lacking, oddly, the comedy.

The film's success ultimately rests on the couple -- and not once in this film, aside from a lot of wispy talk about fate and dreams, did I see any reason why these two opposites would be drawn to each other.

A story that places no constraints on happy coincidences, as this one, always teeters on the brink of corniness.

This is a story that has been told many times before, but generally with more energy than this.
