Dallas Morning News Rated: B- Feb 4, 2006 Full Review Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle The film has a pleasant spirit and lively dialogue, and what's more, seems to be coming from a specific cultural and geographical location. Rated: 3/4 Jan 13, 2006 Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post It wrings almost no laughs or tears from this seemingly idiot-proof premise, taking 45 yawn-filled minutes to introduce its collection of severely stereotyped characters, whose conflicts then play out in excruciatingly predictable fashion. Rated: 1/4 Jan 13, 2006 Full Review David Lamble Bay Area Reporter April's Shower (its 2003 copyright reflects some shelf-rot) feels like a two-hour pilot for one of those mirthless CBS comedies. May 7, 2020 Full Review Kam Williams Upstage Magazine With the preordained outcome of telegraphed in its opening scene, all that's left to enjoy of this mean-spirited melodrama, are politically-incorrect laughs at the expense of a bizarre cross-section of California kooks. Rated: 1/4 May 25, 2007 Full Review Kim Morgan Reel.com Poorly shot, badly timed, lamely idiosyncratic, and annoying. Rated: 0.5/4 Jan 13, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Aww.. Really good =) Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is okay. That is it - just okay. It lacks the depth to really draw you in. The woman in it are not glamorous but have a inner beauty that comes out on the screen. The movie explores love and is it really gender exclusive. I really wanted to like this but it just failed to engage me. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member I was very open to enjoy this movie and did at the beginning. It was pleasant and entertaining if you could ignore the 'dop-tee-do' music. It had an interesting premise and I went with it for awhile until it got sillier and sillier and went on and on. Toward the end, what the characters were doing and how they were reacting was so improbable.

Nontheless a happy movie, but expect nothing too deep. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Way too talky for it's own good and very claustrophobic. The acting is okay, but not very natural . The script is trite and not very believably done. Fair. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny stuff.The main romance is sweet and the tension is fun to play around with, but there's also quite a lot of cheese, and the ending is unbelievably sappy. Liked it despite myself. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
