Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 09/02/2005
This unrated film is best suited for television exposure to young teenage girls, who might actually fall under the spell of its particular brand of hokum. Go to Full Review
Matt Singer Village Voice 08/23/2005
At least the title's accurate: This is a viewing experience that feels like it will never end. Go to Full Review
Lou Lumenick New York Post 08/19/2005
1/4
Even a Sixth Sense-style twist at the end isn't enough to redeem Now & Forever. Go to Full Review
Ethan Alter Film Journal International 03/01/2007
Clark's direction is professional enough, as are the lead performances, but the movie is doomed from the get-go by Bill Boyle's mawkish, cliché-ridden screenplay. Go to Full Review

This poorly executed film is riddled with every cliché in the book and then some. Go to Full Review

06/02/2014 amazing movie need to find and buy it See more 05/11/2012 All I can say is WOW.... Lovely..... See more 01/03/2012 This movie was pretty depressing. While there are parts that you are so happy for the characters, for a good part though you are left feeling empty by the film. See more 06/23/2011 it was a good movie, not exactly what I expected, but the storyline flowed well. See more 04/21/2010 Not bad for a film with a low budget. It's always good to see Therea Russell - a very underrated actress who should have become a major star, but it just never happened. It is cliche'd and a bit too spiritual for my taste, but pleasant enough. See more 10/18/2009 What a tear jerker at the end. I haven't cried so hard at the end of a movie in a really long time. Absolutely beautiful love story -a must add to dvd collection. See more Read all reviews
