Enjoyable enough, but more a TV movie than a feature film of worth.

Shadows on the Wall

The film builds the mystery, comedy and romance quite nicely, although the pay-offs are a little too gentle

I love Ricci in this sort of thing but the script isn't much.

The film certainly has its moments, but not enough to sustain it. It's pretty obvious from the outset that Miranda is a troubled sort, and the juxtaposition of the simple, straight forward Frank is a nice foil that develops well. At least we're spared excessive bitterness of the abandoned child syndrom, which is a plus. The most interesting character is MacLachlan's Nailor. His initial scene with Miranda is high in quirky humor, but it's short lived. Overall, well-acted, but the story lags at time and the characters are not interesting enough nor developed enough for the viewer to care beyond surface concern. Good but not great.

Toothless and dull romance that runs out of ideas very quickly.

With so many good actors in this I was expecting more, still watchable but forgettable. Ricci looks far too young to be playing this role too.

Christina Ricci is awesome in this role, however I thought the script should have been a bit more complex. They create this fascinating character in Miranda and too easily explain her away with a pat, disappointing "All she needs is love" ending.
