Charlotte Observer
(Ford and Thomas) give Random Hearts muscle when the story turns flabby, spine where it sags, wings where it threatens to stay earthbound. - 50
Los Angeles Times
The film's underlying concept is so irredeemably screwy and far-fetched that no amount of fine work can hope to make it convincing. - 50
Film.com
Not a conventional love story, and perhaps it's not a love story at all. After more than two hours, you're left wondering what it is. - 50
Philadelphia Inquirer
Sorely needs the injection of skepticism - a quality that would have been even more useful when Pollack was mulling over doing Random Hearts in the first place. - 50
The New York Times
The film confines them to an affair that is the sexual equivalent of Easy Listening. - 42
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
A sloppily scripted film that contains a silly and superfluous subplot about a crooked cop. - 40
L.A. Weekly
Has spread itself so thin between plot, subplots and great scads of floppy pop-psych, it has nothing else to do but lie down and die of exhaustion. - 40
TNT RoughCut
It risks the believability factor for anyone who's ever been cheated on or lost a loved one.
