Reviews
Peter Stack criticized in the San Francisco Chronicle (September 8, 1995) the "fade " script; the film is still entertaining. The " grainy " acting Berenger playing " pleasing," Hershey WOULD implausible in their role.
James Berardinelli wrote that the film was " surprisingly entertaining " even though the act would be made "politically correct". The narrative of a voice-over of the critics found "extremely irritating " and " redundant". The message of the film is that people are willing to take a risk if they had found what they were looking for a lifetime.
Rita Kempley wrote in the Washington Post (12 September 1995) that the relationship between Gates and Sloan as the whole plot and the dialogues " clichéd " are.
