Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It was difficult sitting through this talky production without squirming from embarrassment at the mushy dialogue and shrill preaching. Rated: C- Jan 4, 2005 Full Review Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat Spirituality & Practice Both enjoyable and endearing, with its excellent ensemble cast and abundance of very funny one-liners. Rated: 3/5 Aug 26, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews
