Gene Siskel Chicago Tribune A tedious women's confessional picture. Rated: 1/4 Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Moonlight and Valentino is very sincere, very heartfelt and very bad. Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review USA Today Moonlight and Valentino is a Hallmark sympathy card of a film, pretty to look at with a message that's sincere. Yet it's hard to take its pretentious platitudes of grief and recovery too personally. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Todd James Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta) Some good performances help pull this out of a melodramatic quagmire, but in the end the light doesn't shine in this sleepy story. Rated: 2/5 Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com A terrific cast, headed by Elizabeth Perkins and Whoopi Goldberg, elevates this earnest melodrama up to a point, but director Anspaugh can't find the center of a drama whose issue is rather timely: coming to terms with loss. Rated: C+ Feb 5, 2007 Full Review Chuck O'Leary Fantastica Daily Rated: 2/5 Oct 5, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
