It's not a total bust, and some of the performances are charming, but it never matches the gleeful, irreverent mischief it had on stage. June 18, 2002 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

For those few things that don't really work, the rest of it does. It's definitely worth a watch, or, if you're anything like me, several watches. September 22, 2019 | Full Review…

The energy level drains away once the picture turns serious, and what remains is a somber plotline that was handled far more effectively in such works as And the Band Played On and Longtime Companion. June 22, 2019 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Every scene with Stewart and Batt delivers at least one masterstroke. But hilarious moments stud Rudnick's screenplay. His knack for dialogue and satire calls to mind some of the great screenwriters of Hollywood's golden era May 2, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
