Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Moss brings warmth and dignity to a part that could've easily slid into stereotype, while Camryn Manheim owns her few scenes as Amanda's best friend. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 13, 2009 Full Review Andrew Barker Variety There's a perfectly likable, sitcomish romantic comedy buried somewhere deep inside Barra Grant's indie Love Hurts, but it would have taken some very significant rewrites to unearth it. Nov 12, 2009 Full Review Kirk Honeycutt Hollywood Reporter A flat-footed sitcom with unconvincing situations and comedy. Nov 12, 2009 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...an utterly misbegotten piece of work... Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 30, 2011 Full Review Mark Keizer Boxoffice Magazine This is not muddy storytelling, just bipolar and unconvincing, as Grant force-feeds us comedy to soften us up for the emotional kill. Rated: 2/5 Nov 13, 2009 Full Review Brian Orndorf BrianOrndorf.com It's bloodless material, sluggishly captured by Barra, who's trapped in directorial survival mode, terrified to color outside of the lines. Rated: D Nov 12, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews
