  • "Shovels heaps of phony portent and all-purpose mystical imagery onto a thin and maudlin plot in the hope that we'll mistake it for something deep." Los Angeles Times

    - Carina Chocano

  • "A maddening exercise in incoherence...feels nearly interminable." USA Today

  • "...suffers from a turgid script and bears all the signs of edit-suite triage to produce a still-incoherent 95 minutes." Variety

    - Leslie Felperin
