 "...silly... politically clueless.... Liam Hemsworth and the student journalist he hooks up with do make an undeniably attractive couple." |

 "...the golden-hued cinematography and the sometimes slack direction by Marc Evans are minuses... the film does deliver in the musical department..." |

 "Fey is so good that -- up to a point -- you can ignore Paul Weitz' erratic direction and a patchy script... there's zero chemistry between Fey and Paul Rudd..." |

 "...a veritable festival of bad toupees and repeated gags that just lie there... runs a bit more than an hour and a half but seems much longer..." |

 "Tommy Lee Jones is predictably wonderful... But Jones can't save a film that unfortunately keeps him off-screen for far too much time..." |

 "...dull, kitschy and overlong... impersonally directed.... The interior of the Emerald City bears an unfortunate resemblance to a Las Vegas casino hotel..." |

 "A glorified TV movie.... Johnson is an ingratiating actor, but an everyman he is not.... The acting isn't bad at all, but it's in service of soap opera trimmings..." |

 "...odd and not entirely uninteresting... has a novel look for a feature film, but doesn't do much to lend dramatic credibility to Lamon's more incredible stories..." |

 "...dispiritingly stupid.... sort of like Bob Fosse's 'All That Jazz' minus the music, the wit and the insight... so feeble it fails even as train-wreck exploitation." |

 "Quentin Tarantino could certainly learn a thing or two from Hill about how to direct a fast-paced, quip-filled B-movie, and bring it in at just over an hour and a half." |
