Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Throughout the movie, Ms. Thurman's facial expressions suggest a peevish spoiled child about to stomp her feet and throw a full-scale tantrum.
Fresh: Yes, it's been done before (and better). But Uma lends it a sly and sexy spark.
Rotten: Despite a few grace notes and mildly clever twists, this handsomely produced indie is such a grating turnoff throughout its first third that its minor virtues may be discovered only by insomniac latenight cable viewers.
Rotten: Sporadically funny though less effective at selling its melancholy undercurrents.
