Critics' reviews

"A comedy so anemic, so toxic, that even Dracula wouldn't bite (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"
"A deeply dispiriting movie, not just because it is grindingly bad but because Jane Fonda actually chose this for her comeback after a 15-year absence from the screen"
"By Hollywood standards, a movie carried with such gusto by a 67-year-old woman has to be considered a miracle. And I'm not sorry to say I enjoyed watching her do it."
"A fairly tedious, stupid picture."
"It would take the dark wit of a Billy Wilder or a Coen brother--or at least a Neil Simon--to put across this kind of material."
"It's a hoot to watch Fonda cut loose and mix it up with J. Lo, even when the laughs turn mean-spirited"
