CRITIC	RATING	QUOTE
Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert	6	...there's too much time between the good scenes. Too much repetitive dialogue. Too many soulful looks. Behavior we can't believe. I wonder what would happen if you sweated 15 minutes out of this movie. Maybe it would work. The materials are there.
Chicago Tribune Mark Caro	3	...a movie that's less incompetent than bewildering.
E!	5	While it's not a total train wreck, this Bennifer comedy is bad for many reasons.
filmcritic.com Sean O'Connell	4	The results aren’t as dire as expected, but they remain far from entertaining.
New York Post	3	...a stinker.
TV Guide Maitland McDonagh	3	...a grotesque misfire...
Reel Tim Knight	2	...[one of] the year's worst films.
Slant Magazine Ed Gonzalez	3	...brain-dead...
Rolling Stone Peter Travers	3	...jaw-droppingly awful...
Maxim Paul Ulane	1	After months of hype, the moment we’ve all been told we’ve been waiting for is finally here: Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are appearing in the same movie. If only they’d made a movie that someone other than Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck could enjoy.
Christian Science Monitor Lisa Leigh Connors	0	...Ben Affleck has a constant smirk on his face. His costar, Jennifer Lopez, also sports a mischievous grin. It's as if the pair are laughing to themselves, thinking, "We can make a really bad movie, and people will still pay to see us."
