Top Critic
A romantic triangle dating movie as confected, and nearly as wholesome, as a '50s Universal bedroom farce, but lacking the confidence and zest.
06/24/06
Well-meaning and decently put together, and it has occasional moments of charm...[but] more than a trifle stale.
12/06/05
The ending gets a little too cute, and isn't true to Anna's independent nature. Oh well, to forgive is divine.

Top Critic Epic dramas can be two hours or more. For light comedy, brevity is better. What could have been a great comedy is just a good one.
04/09/05
The script administers a relentless string of laughs, most of them genuinely funny.
05/14/03
It's a unique blend of charisma, wisdom, and emotion, rendered in a most appealing package.
02/08/03
There is genuine chemistry among this trio that is fun to watch, and the script will keep you giggling.
10/21/02
The movie's biggest surprise is the fine balance it strikes in navigating the tricky passage between offensive and funny.
10/15/02
A charmingly sloppy affair [full of] banter and the free-wheeling spirit of old Hollywood romances... a sun-drenched cinematic field trip.
09/12/02
Smart, funny and touching, and there is enjoyable chemistry between the three leads.
09/10/02
Unevenly paced, wildly unfunny and patently boring, Keeping the Faith is a waste of talent and time.
08/29/02
Top Critic A contrived script and lackluster performances are the worst sins of this uninspired comedy.
