  1. 75
    A surprisingly effective film.
  2. Adds up to a carefully crafted romantic drama of considerable insight and emotional impact that provides Lopez an acting challenge she meets with ease.
  3. 60
    But it's Lopez's movie, and its limitations are hers: Both actress and movie tackle emotional turmoil with a minimum of insight.
  4. A movie about healing that makes us want to scream out, ""Hollywood, heal thyself!"

    This movie was very moving. I really enjoyed it. The storyline is interesting and not predictable. You are constantly trying to put the puzzle piece's of Catch's life together and intrigued by the relationship between him and Sharon. Expand

    Having just recently seen the latest offering by David Cronenberg, "Angel Eyes" sort of plays like "A History of Music". If not for a godawful sequence in which we see Sharon(Jennifer Lopez) and "Catch"(James Caviezel) fall in love via montage, "Angel Eyes" is reasonably mysterious, and more importantly, rare in a studio film, subtle. In an extremely obscure way, the familial subplot reminds me of Cameron Crowe's "Say Anything", because both films end with the man coming to his woman's rescue after an uncomfotable meeting with her father. At various times, we think "Catch" might be a ghost, or a child molester, or perhaps a child molesting ghost. One half of his secret is interesting, but the other half might be too melodramatic, and yet Jennifer Lopez and Jim Caviezel redeem some potentially yucky scenes by resisting the temptation to go for the Oscar. Lopez needs to stay out of the tabloids. Jenny-from-the-block makes a very convincing cop. Expand
