Neither a masterpiece nor a remake of one, but its wistfulness is infectious, and its melancholy mood lingers for days.

Boston Globe
It's a small film, and a far from perfect one, but it allows her (Theron) to extend her range as no previous role has done.

Village Voice
If the movie works on its own insipid level, it's because of high-gear star power -- 50 times the captivator Dennis ever was, Theron is terrific at creating adorable intimacy with little help from the script or director and exudes more guileless élan than any of the film's many puppies.

Slate
He's (Reeves) not as good as he was playing a menacing Georgia wife-beater in The Gift, but he's an awfully convincing jerk.

Does neither of its leads any favors. But they fill their roles admirably, and then some. Time and again, in a movie that repeatedly threatens mawkishness, you can sense them gently steering away just in the nick of time.
