      Ronnie Scheib Variety Executes its clever premise with journeyman competence instead of true wit. Dec 31, 2004 Full Review Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter The screenplay never quite lives up the cleverness of its premise, with the result that the proceedings never quite gather any comedic steam, though there are amusing moments along the way. Dec 31, 2004 Full Review Christopher Null Filmcritic.com Rated: 3/5 Mar 11, 2006 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Merle Bertrand Film Threat While there's never any serious doubt about how director Jordan Hawley's bittersweet comedy is going to end up, it's still a fun and silly-in-a- good-way ride to get there. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 30, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews
