With Honors Reviews
Fantastica Daily
Obviously inspired by the success of Scent of a Woman, this one could have been called Scent of a Bum.
| Original Score: 3/5
About.com
Well meaning drama but oversimplifies a lot and plays the death card too easily.
| Original Score: 3/5
Spirituality and Practice
A shaggy dog drama about the education of one upwardly bound college student.
Sin Magazine
This movie is predictable from scene one, though that wouldn't be a problem if it had a good script, good performances and solid direction. But it doesn't.

A politically correct, vastly sentimental and ultimately insincere saga of the friendship between a kind homeless man, played by Joe Pesci, and a guilt-ridden Harvard student, played byBrendan Frazer.

One of the few films I've ever walked out on. Pesci and Fraser serve up unsympathetic and grating characters.
