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.

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.

4 The results aren’t as dire as expected, but they remain far from entertaining.

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.

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."
