I'm not really sure what it was about this movie that failed to captivate me or inspire me or even entertain me. The story was reasonably creative, and the acting was not horrible, but the movie failed to click with me... Full review

I don't know how any one could reduce the characters in this film to, 'shallow' or 'board'. This was a rare film in the romantic comedy genre which didn't follow the tired old formulas. Yet it still has a classic... Full review

In total contrast, the heart-to-heart between Jessica and her mother (Tovah Feldshuh, stunning), jolts all our emotions, delivering the films most moving moment. The handling of serious issues is intelligently intertwined with the humour, and the snap-edited scenes where we meet Jessicas dates are beautifully executed. ... Full Review
