Critic Reviews

Roger Ebert

Filmed in the colors of newborn Technicolor, plotted as a tribute to the conventions of Hollywood romance, filled with standard songs, it's by and for people who love those kinds of movies. Others will find it cliched and predictable, but they won't understand. Read full review

Carrie Rickey

An appealing, low-budget musical. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

Comes perilously close to being a vanity production for the obscure singer Isabel Rose, who stars and wrote the autobiographical screenplay with neophyte director Robert Cary, based on her own struggles as a cabaret singer. Read full review

Jonathan Rosenbaum

So lackluster both as an homage and as a story in its own right that I was already forgetting it before it was over. Read full review

Premiere Peter Debruge

There's a lot to be said for a movie that isn't after instant fame, but only wants to make audiences feel good. Read full review

Dallas Observer Melissa Levine

The dialogue is not merely tired but exhausted, as though its head has already hit the pillow and it's just "mm-hm"ing us before it falls asleep. Read full review

Scott Foundas

The movie's chief liability, though, is Rose herself, who also co-scripted with first-time director Robert Cary and who registers several notches below Nia Vardalos on the totem of unlikely double-threats. Read full review
