Derek Adams Time Out 06/24/2006
[Aniston] has the rare gift of getting you to root for her in the most trying of circumstances, a quality that will stand her in good stead when she progresses to better material. Go to Full Review Janet Maslin New York Times 05/20/2003

[Aniston] at her best can recall young Barbra Streisand in her What's Up, Doc? days. Go to Full Review Peter Travers Rolling Stone 05/11/2001
Aniston doesn't need dialogue to catch Kate's quicksilver moods. It's the sitcom lines, at the service of a contrived plot, that choke her. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 10/27/2020

Stephen C @bob25009 Jul 23 Funny in 1 hour and 40 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The USA grossed over $31,100,000.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more IslandMoon M Jul 20 This little movie is not as bad as the critical reviews . Young Jennifer Aniston is a delight to watch .. and the Music Pacing is nice Believe me . Not an academy award winner .. But a fun popcorn film:) See more Jude D 09/29/2024 Awful movie. Completely pointless. The ending is contrived, hollow and selfish. Don't waste an hour and a half of your life like I did. 😭 See more Shane O 08/13/2024 Very little ,if any, chemistry in this movie. Jennifer Aniston holds the film together but just about. All in all Its a barley watchable and very forgettable rom com See more Test T 12/07/2023 The story here is a too contrived to be convincing, but overall I found the movie pleasant and entertaining to watch. Jennifer Aniston is clearly the main attraction, and she deliveres a solid likeable performance along with the supporting cast. The film ends realistically for the characters which helps reconcile the misguided corporate nonsense with the audience. My main concern with the movie was that it lacks the charasmatic magic which can make a movie special. See more Steve D 02/13/2023 The script didn't work at all for me. See more Read all reviews
