Something about Diane Lane's performance, especially in that third act, really got me involved in the film emotionally.
Ben Lyons, At the Movies
Rotten
The comparative savvy that Wolfe showed in HBO's stage-to-TV transfer of Lackawanna Blues has gone missing.
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
Broadway director George C Wolfe's inexperience with visual storytelling makes everything go with a clunk. Shame.
Trevor Johnston, Time Out
Rotten
Richard Gere suffers less than Diane Lane. He gets by with a mixture of skill and self-irony. She acts up a storm in every scene, but you root for the hurricane.
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
