Catherine Shoard Daily Telegraph (UK) Rumour had it that this was rubbish, and so it is. Feb 12, 2020 Full Review Rex Reed Observer Nothing is remotely believable here. Jan 11, 2006 Full Review Peter Rainer Christian Science Monitor I suppose it sounded like a good idea at the time. Rated: C- Jan 5, 2006 Full Review James Croot The Post NZ And, as Jeff rather drolly notes, she manages to "make this sound like a police investigation", rather than a comedy...

Issy W Dont watch this. Weird incestuous twist half way through. Super uncomfortable to watch, can’t believe Jenifer Aniston would act in something like this… Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/31/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/28/25 Full Review Aly A Someone's sick fantasy turned into a movie. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Lanfranco C Funny, unreal and entertaining Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/29/25 Full Review Jenny B Rumour has it was a slight disappointment. I expected it to be more funny but was slightly weird and the storyline was upsetting.While the ending was happy, in reality it was a mediocre film . Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Tim M Rumor Has It that this Rob Reiner romcom is wholly contrived without any semblance of humor or genuine sentiment - the rumors are true.
