I've read reviews and articles from its day dismissing this moving as a waster of two major talents. Now, with the benefit of hindsight, all of those comments appear short sighted if not just inaccurate. True, the film is an "hommage"... Full review

This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Talented actors wasted on a soap opera movie. All the actors look like they are just going thru the motions. This movie will help you too fall asleep.... Full review

single essential fact would spoil FALLING IN LOVE's manipulative and shameless ending.....They carry the plot and the dimwit dialogue because of the goodwill they've built up with us....FALLING IN LOVE will serve as a definitive example of good performances in a bad movie.....They have a genuine chemistry together on the screen and undeniable charisma.....because of their own magnetism, their ability to invest worthless dialogue with a certain personal charm..... ...
