Utterly banal, Joan Chen's tediously sappy romance is a kind of modern-day Love Story (a better film!) with a "twist": Richard Gere's suave lover is old enough to be Winona Ryder's father.

Rotten
A workmanlike product that offers occasional, small moments of satisfaction, but, as a whole, is apt to leave audiences wondering why they should care.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten
A diaphanous daydream of cliches, predictable developments, strained romance, and frequently embarrassing dialogue.
Michael Atkinson, Mr. Showbiz
Rotten
[Chen] has a lovely sense of film rhythm and a sophisticated eye for luxe effects, but she fell into this vat of goo and there's no climbing out of it.
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine/Vulture
Rotten
The movie's biggest fatality is the lack of chemistry between the two stars. Even in their most amorous moments, they seem like a randy uncle and his sad-eyed niece.
