Reviews
a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars
Very nearly an entertaining, lightweight comedy, except for one flaw: its message is about as subtle as those in a Disney sports movie.
It's smart and warm, and if Heckerling loses her grip a few times, it's only because she's squeezing so hard.
...has been infused with a distinctly over-the-top sensibility that effectively drains the proceedings of anything even resembling authenticity.
A desperately unfunny mix of tepid showbiz satire and formulaic romantic comedy.
It's a pleasant diversion -- an enjoyable romantic comedy that has enough going for it to make it worth a recommendation.
A direção de Heckerling é irregular e a montagem é assustadoramente descuidada, mas Pfeiffer e (especialmente) Rudd conferem charme suficiente para tornar o filme divertido.
Features one of the best screen couples since Tom and Meg. "Clueless for Baby Boomers"
