    The New York Times Elvis Mitchell

    The movie has lots of glossy charm even if Ms. Roberts and Grant seem less like lovers than members of a support group for the desperately attractive.

    Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert

    The movie is bright, the dialogue has wit and intelligence, and Roberts and Grant are very easy to like. By the end, as much as we're aware of the ancient story machinery groaning away below deck, we're smiling.

    Variety Derek Elley

    Has buckets to spare of that rarest screen commodity — genuine, engaging charm.

    USA Today Susan Wloszczyna

    Its deadpan wit, ingenious fairy-tale premise and superbly accomplished cast will leave you feeling positively oxygenated.

For Families provided by Common Sense Media

OK for kids 13+

Not deep, but definitely funny--teens will enjoy.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know there's occasional profanity, ranging from mild to heavy. William's flatmate makes crude remarks and wears lewd T-shirts. A good deal of alcohol is consumed at parties. Comments about breasts, leering at breasts, questions about sleeping with someone, and jokes about masturbating. Also, a comment about seeing old friend Pandora's "box." The two leads are seen post-coital, but not naked.

  • Families can talk about whether or not they would want to be famous.
