PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"Don't look for sweet and embraceable. This movie is not afraid to show its claws. Like the spirited teamwork of Kazan and Dano, 'Ruby Sparks' is honest, deep and true (...) Rating: *** (out of four)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)

----------------------------------------
"Like Calvin, Kazan has written herself into a corner that can only lead to embracing the sappy romantic clichés that Ruby Sparks tries half-heartedly to mock (...) Rating: ** (out of four)" (Lou Lumenick: New York Post)

----------------------------------------
"A beguiling romantic fantasy" (Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter)
