...Written and directed with an embracing cheer. It's blissfully uncynical...

...The story is not so much about romance as about goodheartedness, which is a rarer quality, and not so selfish. And Cage has a certain gentleness that brings out nice soft smiles on Fonda's face...

Rating: 2.5/4 -- Writer Jane Anderson is a gifted scenarist who seems constrained by a Hollywood formula which places the happy romantic ending on the horizon like a beacon to stare at for nearly two hours. Full Review

Sweetness is fine as far as it goes, but this oddball romance could have used a twist of lemon.

Rating: 5/5 -- Best romance ever. Real, genuine characters with real, developed relationships. Not insulting, not cutesy, just wonderful.

Perez has a field day as Muriel, injecting a welcome note of good old-fashioned greed into what is otherwise a relentlessly edifying story. Full Review
