Nell Minow
Movie Mom
A desperately unfunny mix of tepid showbiz satire and formulaic romantic comedy.

Joe Leydon
Variety
It's much better than a lot of the stuff playing in theaters.

Richard Roeper
Ebert & Roeper
It's a pleasant diversion -- an enjoyable romantic comedy that has enough going for it to make it worth a recommendation.

James Berardinelli
ReelViews
As an older woman who has built her career on a keen understanding of youth culture, she [Director Amy Heckerling] has a lot to say about Rosie's small world.

Film4
a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars

Nathaniel Rogers
The Film Experience
Very nearly an entertaining, lightweight comedy, except for one flaw: its message is about as subtle as those in a Disney sports movie.

It's smart and warm, and if Heckerling loses her grip a few times, it's only because she's squeezing so hard.

...has been infused with a distinctly over-the-top sensibility that effectively drains the proceedings of anything even resembling authenticity.

A direo de Heckerling irregular e a montagem assustadoramente descuidada, mas Pfeiffer e (especialmente) Rudd conferem charme suficiente para tornar o filme divertido.

It is a cute story - Both mother and daughter going through relationship issues. Michelle Pfeiffer is a single mom with a 13ish year old daughter. We sometimes wonder who is the adult between the two.

Should not have gone direct-to-DVD. The presence of the Mother Nature character and Tracy Ullman's portrayal is done perfectly. Everything else is messy, with great writing popping out here and there. Stacey Dash is a pleasant surprise. Girl who plays the daughter holds her own with the comic experts in the cast.
