It's a romantic comedy with a distinctly modern, delicate but sharp, satirical cutting edge.
Susan Stark, Detroit News

For a while, anyway, it's very funny.
Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel

[Hunt] elevates what might have been a cute, familiarly plotted movie into a romance with real heart, sweetness and genuine emotion.
Steven Rosen, Denver Post

John Anderson, Newsday
