In the end, you just feel good about these people, and that's a nice sensation these days.
By Steven Rea FULL REVIEW

Holds its potentially problematic ingredients together remarkably well, summoning outstanding performances from Morrow and Linney, while never dipping into sentiment or patronizing the ailment's sufferers.
By John Patterson FULL REVIEW

It works because this isn't really a "disease" film, it's a love story. It just so happens one of the main characters has Tourette Syndrome. Thus, I too will take the easy way out and say, "it's a good love story...with a twitch."

Morrow fares less well with the script, which he also produced and collaborated on.
By Lou Lumenick FULL REVIEW

Although this is a likable comedy-drama, it never quite balances its humanitarian message (disabled people fall in love like everyone else) with its standard-issue romantic angles.
By David Sterritt FULL REVIEW

The movie walks a tightrope between playing this misunderstood malady for laughs and sentiment.
By Jami Bernard FULL REVIEW

Just when you think it can't get any worse, Maze rams home a body blow -- equating the involuntary spasms of Tourette's with the ungovernable impulses of the heart.
