Critic Reviews

Elizabeth Weitzman

Given the subject matter, the movie is almost fatally lacking in passion. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

The scene transitions are sometimes jarring, but the story unfolds like a particularly juicy bit of small-town gossip, one that's told by a particularly vivid storyteller. Read full review

David Rooney

Despite its crude, willfully naive style, this comedy of transgression, judgment and revenge becomes steadily more appealing as it progresses. Read full review

Frank Scheck

There's little to distinguish this tale from the countless similar efforts that have preceded it, other than the exoticism of its setting. The performers do manage to bring some life to their characters. Read full review

Stephen Holden

Does a fine job of building up a sense of dread as its adulterous relationship gathers steam. So it's all the more disappointing when the movie ultimately collapses with a ridiculous comic ending that leaves you feeling almost as betrayed as its cuckolded husband. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Never rises above the level of a soap opera, although the steamy sex and Lo's abundant nudity might make it worthwhile for some viewers. Read full review

David Ng

Barely elevated telenovela. Read full review
