Daniel Fienberg L.A. Weekly Tambor and Clayburgh make an appealing couple - he's understated and sardonic, she's appealingly manic and energetic. Both deserve better. Sep 26, 2002 Full Review Chris Vognar Dallas Morning News After a while, Never Again gets so busy celebrating ageless virility that it forgets to tell a decent story. Rated: C+ Aug 8, 2002 Full Review Adam Nayman eye WEEKLY Tambor and Clayburgh are actually both very likeable in their roles, but the script is just miserable.
