50
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Shallow and blatantly manipulative variation on "Awakenings" in which every plot development is telegraphed.

50
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
It is moving and has been well-crafted with much care.

40
TV Guide
Ken Fox
For all its sensitivity, the film abounds with movie cliches about the developmentally challenged.

30
Variety
Lael Lowenstein
A shamelessly sentimental story.

30
LA Weekly
Stefan Thiel
This movie's already been entertaining (or boring) airline passengers for months.

30
The New York Times
Stephen Holden
(Shue's) sweetly likable performance is the only coherent element in a film that has the impersonal feel of a television drama slapped together in a rush.

25
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
Shallow and sentimental in the sappiest Hollywood tradition.

25
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Derivative to the point of distraction.

6
Mr. Showbiz
Kevin Maynard
It's a sugar rush that'll leave you feeling like a rotten cavity.
