Bed of Roses is easily one of the best romance movies ever. Even if the movie wasn't as good as it is, the soundtrack alone would make it worth watching. But, the movie itself is wonderful and full of warmth. Bed... Full review

Friday January 26, 1996 Keeping things short and sweet is often good advice, and when they are as sweet as writer-director Michael Goldenberg's "Bed of Roses," the shorter the better.
In the end, "Bed of Roses" is too much perfection.

The performances are disappointing.....The lively and diverse soundtrack will make a great purchase, but overpowers the mediocre story and embarrassing montages..... ... Full Review

But setting those aspects aside, "Bed of Roses" is fairly satisfying.
There are no big comic set-pieces, though the film does have some humor, and the ultimate revelations are not earth-shattering or overly melodramatic .

James Berardinelli's Reviews

Bed of Roses probably wants to be more literate than it succeeds at being.
