Helmer Michael Scott coaxes soulful work from Gilbert and Greenwood, who have just enough chemistry to make their romance believable
-Ray Richmond, Variety 10/20/99

With Michael Scott ably directing, the cast is led by the still adorable but now deeply vulnerable Gilbert, whose reflection of her character's emotional range is generous and whole, and the gorgeous yuppie Greenwood, who manages to seem genuinely courageous and funny by turns despite some unexpected, even unlikely turns of plot.
