This feel-good motion picture is intelligently written and expertly directed.

The New York Times -
Within the limits and cliches of utterly predictable material, Mr. Coppola is still finally able to make this one from the heart.

Entertainment Weekly -
it's a synthetic, rather drab movie, one that seems linked less to experience, or even to fantasy, than to other movies - "Big," of course, and also "E.T.," "Mask," and "Phenomenon."

San Francisco Examiner -
Francis Ford Coppola's Jack has its affecting moments, but in the end illustrates the pitfalls of the "concept" movie, the kind you can boil down to a one-line hook.
