This was supposed to be a romantic comedy? Neither funny nor romantic. Over two hours long and completely boring! Ben Stiller tries too hard, Edward Norton flashes between looking goofy and looking smug, and Jenna Elfman is just plain butt-ugly. Avoid... Full review

I love Edward Norton to death. I really do. That's probably why I gave 'Direction' a higher grade than the others. The movie did drag a bit, but he's just so darn cute that it doesn't matter. There was had one... Full review

Damn likeable though you are, Ed, I can't rave about Keeping the Faith - but keep trying. Edward Norton is one of my favourite actors - but he hasn't become a favourite director with this well meaning, hard-trying and enjoyable but misconceived frolic. ... Full Review

Edward Norton proves to be an adept first-time director with Keeping the Faith, his freshman turn behind the camera.....Actor-turned-director Edward Norton shows his flair for the physical in 'Keeping the Faith....convincing, an actor you can believe even when he does something as implausible as pose as Anna's boyfriend for a double-date with Jake.....it does make fun of the characters' efforts to live up to them..... ...
