Paltrow cannot begin to save this unfunny flight attendant comedy that should have gone direct to video.
Hap Erstein, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Rotten
The characters have no wit or charm, the plot has no conflict or development, nothing happens for any reason other than script requirements.
Rex Reed, New York Observer

It's just sweet and light, but it's got kind of giddy charm to it ...
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

Poorly lit and tone-deaf.
