  1. Shrill and sloppy film.
    • Miami Herald
  2. So lazy and rote, it feels like a rerun the first time you watch it.
  3. The movie is small and familiar, but this time, those turn out to be strengths.
  4. While there is archival value in permanently recording this work on celluloid, the best way to really enjoy it remains live on stage.
  5. Enjoyably preposterous, old-guys-are-cool-too plot.
  6. The bar scenes do make for a great, although brief, package.
    • Miami Herald
  7. Turns resoundingly dumb in its last 40 minutes.
    • Miami Herald
  8. Has some very funny moments, it is weighed down by gooey sentimentality.
  9. As the sexual tension builds -- and it becomes intense, culminating in a highly suggestive knife-throwing scene more erotic than if the actors had been having explicit physical contact -- Girl takes you on a thrilling ride.
    • Miami Herald
  10. There's enough here to make anyone who enjoyed -- if that's the right word -- "Happiness" or "Magnolia" splendidly unhappy.

    Skip the movie and pick up the videos at Toys R Us.
  11. But even if the film is short on analysis and skepticism, Tammy makes for a fascinating subject anyway.
    • Miami Herald
  12. A mess, but a fascinating one.
    • Miami Herald
  13. An uncommonly playful fright machine -- a fun house factory of scares.
  14. It manages just to be pleasant.
    • Miami Herald
  15. The most enjoyable piece of pop fantasy of the summer; sleek, elegant, exciting and wildly, outrageously imaginative.
  16. Very French and at times threatens to dissolve into a steamy sex farce.
    • Miami Herald
  17. An oddity, but a remarkably intriguing and original one, and in Buck ... it also has the most unforgettable movie character of the year.
    • Miami Herald
  18. Deadly dull.
  19. It's hard to connect with long minutes of self-pity by a temporarily has-been celebrity.
    • Miami Herald
  20. Shower is also a comedy -- but it's the movie's melancholy streak that is its strongest asset.
  21. Tedious and trite.
    • Miami Herald
  22. Does serve up an inspired gag every once in a while.
  23. The movie is "Twister" on the high seas, a spectacular-looking, spectacularly hollow tale about foolhardy men vs. imperious nature.
  24. The movie's attempts at zaniness are flat, almost embarrassing.
    • Miami Herald
  25. Every character is quirky, and each has a schtick.
  26. It's big, exciting, ambitious, and it makes you cry in all the right places.
  27. Hilarious, but it isn't much of a movie.
    • Miami Herald
  28. The package is perfectly irresistible.
    • Miami Herald
  29. Never feels like anything more than a Saturday morning cartoon pumped up to big-screen dimensions.
