Rotten
It's not that the movie is utterly bereft of arresting moments. It's just that each of these prominently features one of the aforementioned supporting cast and not the so-called star.

Matters quickly regress into an antic romantic comedy, potentially buoyed by a strong cast but soon thwarted by a screenplay as leaden as it is predictable.
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail
Rotten
Haphazardly conceived and clumsily executed, this aggressively quirky yet gratingly unfunny comedy appears set on the fast track to vidstore bins.
Joe Leydon, Variety
Rotten
When the writer's this far off, the actors and the audience pay the price.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
