Variety Robert Koehler
Thesping and production values are solid and sometimes even attractive, but pic's overall American-style gloss becomes extremely odd and discomforting given the setting.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Elizabeth Weitzman
The ideal movie for people too lazy to read a Harlequin romance, this by-the-numbers love story doesn't offer a single surprise.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Dave Kehr
Lopes along amiably enough, offering a few smiles and the standard bromides about the importance of being yourself and pursuing your dreams. It's tolerable but forgettable.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Maitland McDonagh
Simultaneously nakedly formulaic and oddly clumsy, particularly in terms of character introduction.
Read Full Review >New York Post Lou Lumenick
A mild cross between "The Big Chill" and "Sex and the City," this English-language German oddity is a romantic comedy passing through on its way to video.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Chuck Wilson
Sometimes the predictability of a romantic comedy is reassuring, and sometimes it makes you want to scream, as with this witless wonder.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Ben Kenigsberg
Painfully contrived, Venus and Mars's dialogue tends toward banal (as opposed to quotably bad), and the rhythm at which lines are read is definitely alien.

Kristy R. gave it an 8:
Oh Please, I really loved this film. It's not meant to be an oscar contender, it's meant to be a sappy, romantic comedy and i love it for that.
Jacques B. gave it a 0:
Just Awful!
