Top critics, in their words

All reviews
Rotten

Lopez is fairly convincing as a tough cookie by day and a lonesome soft-centre by night, but despite their best efforts, neither she nor Caviezel can fight free of the turgid script.

Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten

Together, Lopez and Caviezel make quite a pair. Sorrowful yet hip, they seem to be inventing a new mood: designer melancholia.

Peter Rainer, New York Magazine/Vulture
Rotten

Its protagonists, their situation and its mechanical but mushy resolution are never remotely believable.

Jonathan Foreman, New York Post
Rotten

Darts back and forth from being a psychological thriller to a vaguely metaphysical drama to a fate-driven romance. Such a schema may, in the right hands, make for a powerful, all-seeing movie; here, it all becomes a blur.

Robert Koehler, Variety
Fresh

The movie works because Lopez gives such a terrific performance.
