Melissa Anderson · Variety 20.00/100.00

The heartstring-pulling contrivances of the film, set during Christmastime, go way over the top.

Unknownian 1.00/10.00

The most depressing miserable movie of the 21st century. This may be the most unnecessary movie ever filmed. If you've ever contemplated suicide, but were too chicken to pull it off, watch this movie the next time you're thinking about it, and we'll never hear from you again.I have no idea how this disaster ever got green lit. The Los Angeles that is contrived in this film is one I hope no one ever experiences. Yes, life begins, then it ends for all of us. Some have a happier, longer version of life than others. Most of us go to the theater to avoid that reality, not embrace **** Hollywood would green-light a script detailing the absolute worst scenarios of human suffering, and film it in depressing film stock and filters to further enhance the most morbid elements of life, I just don't understand. I would rate it a 1, however Jessica Biel reveals herself for the first time, and I figured that was worth a point.. Unless you love EXTREME depression, and disgusting surroundings...PASS.

Vadim Rizov · Village Voice 10.00/100.00

In a movie full of egregiously overdramatic stupidities, the ultimate insult is to Patrick Swayze, who plays Biel's manager as an especially-poorly-preserved Bret Michaels.
