Critic Reviews for Prelude to a Kiss
All Critics (24) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (15) | Rotten (9) | DVD (4)
It's a novel, and zany, romantic dilemma, and though Lucas gets plenty of laughs out of this preposterous situation, what's singular about Prelude to a Kiss is the depth of feeling it wrests from this whimsical conceit.
This Prelude to a Kiss is not only without charm and wit, but it's also clumsily set forth: many people seeing it may wonder what, in heaven's name, is going on.
As a reflexive meditation on the nature of love in the AIDS era, this erio-comedy is poignant but it still bears too much the theatrical sensibility of the source material.
The body-switching gimmick shouldn't work, but it really does.
So-so romantic comedy fantasy that barely gets by.
This adult fairy tale gives us a glimpse of our unity with others and celebrates the enduring power of love.
Audience Reviews for Prelude to a Kiss
Prelude to a kiss is a nice little film without as much personality as its two star actors, Alec Baldwin and Meg Ryan could have given it with a better script. They're the main reason for this film working. It's not overly funny, not overly romantic, but it somehow works. I would recommend it to fans of romance movies, but not many others.
Super Reviewer
A dumb little tale about old men jumping bodies after kissing brides and all hell breaking loose. Don't resolve itself very creatively.
Super Reviewer
A Prelude to a Kiss is a strange but likable movie. It's about a dieing old man that switches bodies with a bride (Meg Ryan) on her wedding day.
