Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Director Irwin Winkler takes a thudding and detached approach to Steve Levitt's humanistic screenplay, but tart turns by Val Kilmer and Kelly McGillis provide the material with the conflict it requires.

...The stars have a sweet, sexy chemistry...

Rating: 0/5 --
At first sight this film is terrible. At second sight, it's even worse.
Juicy Cerebellum
Rating: 2/4 --
Kilmer registers little emotion aside from a silly grin he perpetually wears throughout the film.

...An exceptionally touching and provocative love story....The way in which Virgil has been written, directed and portrayed is a singularly impressive feat of imagination and illumination...
Los Angeles Times
...Kilmer and Sorvino establish a convincing, intimate rapport...
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 2/4 --
Unfortunately, its moments of fascination and its good performances are mired in the morass of romance and melodrama that surrounds it. A blind man can see, and still he's trapped in a formulaic studio plot.
