  1. It's fun. Hey, it's almost spring, Rickman is fabulous and so is Richardson. Warren Clarke is continually funny. And Heidi Klum alone will melt the snows of yesteryear.
  2. This comedy-drama was written by Simon Beaufoy, who brought us "The Full Monty," and it has some of the same gamy mix of alternative sexuality and working-class heart.
  3. A cute, well-acted film that tries to mix tones sharply.
  4. 30
    A limp and lackluster affair that telegraphs its feel-good smarm miles in advance.
