Chicago Sun-Times
One of the pleasures of Ronald Bass' screenplay is the way it subverts the usual comic formulas that would fuel a plot like this.

ReelViews
The film makers understand that it's possible for a romantic comedy to appeal not only to the heart, but to the mind as well.

San Francisco Chronicle
The real casting disaster is Mulroney. His blandness in the role makes it impossible to believe two beautiful women would fight over him.

Feels repetitive at times, but its star power and willingness to undercut convention come through at the end.

USA Today
Mulroney is a drip with not a milliliter of chemistry with either woman. Roberts doesn't really seem to care about him so much as the fact that life is passing her by. Though, that may be the point.
