The girl has an agenda of her own... she wants to save his marriage....

Paul Adrendt quote iconHere's a romantic comedy that manages to be cute without sending viewers barrelling into the bathroom to toss their cookies.

eye Weekly
Jason Anderson quote iconThe movie is too glib and muddled to achieve its loftier goals and ends up seeming over-ambitious and overextended.

ReelViews
