To attempt a culinary metaphor, Ms. van der Oest manages a yolky, runny sitcom omelet rather than the airy soufflé of farce.

Top CriticIt's been a long time since a film made me want to change the ending.
02/13/03
Top CriticWhile Zus & Zo strains for style points, it's just an off-the-shelf romantic comedy, and not a very good one.
06/12/03
Top CriticThe movie seems intended to show that Holland is the most inanely liberal place on Earth.
06/27/03
Dutch writer-director van der Oest evidently regards herself as a purveyor of modern family values, but she is cinematically maladroit.

The Dutch may have scooped us when it comes to embracing the various permutations of human sexuality, but Paula van der Oest's densely schematic romantic comedy crinkles enlightenment into an aluminum-foil ball of hooey.

Top CriticScattered among the annoying angst are a few brief moments of amusement...

The title translates, roughly, as 'This & That,' a confectionary shrug that pretty well sums up the blase inconsequentiality of it all.
02/20/03
Top CriticA comedy in which lightweight attempts at relevance mostly fall flat.
07/17/03
Top CriticIt might have a chance as a TV sitcom, but discerning moviegoers will be bored out of their minds.

Blithely diverting family comedy is only marred by a too-precious final denouement.
02/07/03
A gentle exploration of mistakes, as four siblings discover themselves and each other.

Hay ante todo una notable frescura en la observación de sus personajes que seguramente proviene de la habilidad de su directora y guionista Paula van der Oest.
12/28/03
Fortunately, the performers ... fully embrace the ludicrous aspects of their roles, with frequently hilarious results.
02/10/03
It's good-humored, nicely photographed and inoffensive and not too long.
06/26/03
It's all very Woody Allen, and more than a little silly.
09/06/03
This winning comedy joyfully embraces every possible permutation of love; cupid, it turns out, is indeed blind, and doesn't care much about gender either.
