Its preoccupation with snazzy computer-generated special effects has left key plot points so unclear at least one baffled viewer had to retreat to the book to find out why some things happened and others did not.
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
The presence of Douglas, who has made a career of being pursued by beautiful, dangerous women, turns this sexual-harassment thriller into instant camp.
Terrence Rafferty, New Yorker

This witty, wily battle between genders is not so much about sexual harassment as it is about power politics in the workplace, where water-cooler gossip is replaced by E-mail, and where memo warfare is waged by combatants in virtual-reality goggles.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer

For those who would question Crichton's motives, Levinson and Attanasio haven't let men off the hook.
