Chicago Reader
The sincerity of their performances (Lopez and Caviezel) overrides the intermittent implausibilities of Gerald Dipego's script. - 50
New Times (L.A.)
A unique and striking film for at least the first two-thirds of its running time, after which it turns, all too sadly, predictable and mundane - 42
Entertainment Weekly
A cumbersome dud, grows draggier with each new revelation. - 40
Austin Chronicle
Viewers with a low tolerance for schmaltz may suffer; one heartfelt speech even drew nervous titters from the otherwise indulgent preview crowd. - 38
New York Daily News
A movie about healing that makes us want to scream out, ""Hollywood, heal thyself!" - 30
The New York Times
The product is so synthetic it has only attitude where its heart ought to be. - 25
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Has all the telltale signs of desperate re-editing: mismatched shots, clumsy transitions and a devastating car wreck that occurred either on a dry sunlit day or in the midst of a nighttime downpour, depending on the flashback. - 25
New York Post
During an endless, maudlin last act, it becomes more and more difficult not to laugh -- or barf -- as the protagonists tearfully come to terms with their issues.
