Entertainment Weekly -
A clunky family-therapy soaper.

Chicago Tribune -
Maybe Georgia Rule should be required viewing for Paris Hilton during her term in the slammer. But not for us.

The New York Times -
It's an interesting, maddening mess -- not a terrible movie, and by no means a dull one.
|
|
Christian Science Monitor -
There's enough family dysfunction here to fill out a dozen soppy soap operas.
|
|
Village Voice -
There's almost no rescuing this wobbly movie from its showdowns and insights. Except, that is, when Lohan's around.
