The film's locales have an appealing authentic feel to them, and everything from decor to music contributes to making Looking for an Echo an appealing heart-tugger. - 63
New York Daily News
The best performance comes from Venora. - 50
New York Post
Well-meant but rambling little indie melodrama. - 40
TV Guide Magazine
A slow-moving, dramatically slack film. - 40
L.A. Weekly
Assante, restrained and thoughtful, reveals Vinnie's midlife bewilderment as much as his bred-in machismo. His performance is too delicate, though, to stand up to the rigidly formulaic schemes - 30
Village Voice
The stream of sentimentality is endless and often sickly, and the warm afterglow is decidedly manufactured. - 20
The New York Times
Corny, suds-drenched movie. The kindest way of looking at this roughly patched-together story is as the cinematic equivalent of the music it memorializes.
