DUELING CRITICS

"The film has an energetic grace...Familiar but never overly broad, this well-cast, crowd-pleasing comedy benefits from a low-key emphasis on character over high jinks"

- Sheri Linden

"A witless, stale and half-hearted rehash of clichés...feels endless...Poor Debra Messing's first starring vehicle was an unmitigated disaster even before the cameras started rolling"

- Lou Lumenick
