    Promising premise is consistently undermined by its presentation. This should have been a lot more fun and certainly much funnier. Instead it plays more like 'Fatal Attraction,' instead of the romantic comedy I'm sure was intended. Thurman's reckless overbearing character quickly grows insufferable and oppressive. The film grows increasingly more preposterous and silly as it goes along, all the while unraveling like a dropped ball of yarn. Big disappointment!… Expand

    This was supposed to be a comedy, but it just wasn't funny. In fact, it wasn't much of anything.

    A one-joke movie if ever there was, but the joke happens to be a good one -- a Tracy-and-Hepburn-style battle of the sexes in which Kate can fly and blast through walls -- and director Ivan Reitman (who made Ghostbusters) feels at home with the mix of screwball and supernatural.

    You'd have to go back to "My Stepmother Is an Alien" to find a male fantasy/nightmare this off-putting.

    The two starring performances are spot on. Wilson gets the tone that screenwriter Don Payne so expertly evokes: It's a weird sort of self-aware despicability...Thurman is beautiful, fearless and perfectly believable as a superhero.
