Philip Wuntch Dallas Morning News You'll know better, but you'll still like it. Rated: C+ Oct 30, 2003 Full Review Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter If you're willing to swallow those formulaic plot machinations, you may reasonably enjoy this rough-hewn debut effort, which is far more effective in its quieter, dialogue-heavy moments than when it attempts more ambitious cinematic conceits. Oct 27, 2003 Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post Alas, good intentions do not always a good movie make. Rated: 2/4 Oct 23, 2003 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 4.5/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review James Verniere Boston Herald Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 16, 2005 Full Review Apollo Guide Rated: 70/100 May 13, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
