- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Lopez and Affleck are sweet and appealing in their performances; the buzz said they didn't have chemistry, but the buzz was wrong. What they don't have is conviction"
-
"Writer-director Martin Brest lends the film a professional sheen, and his stars have charisma to spare, but the film has all the charge and momentum of a Paxil ad."
-
"The problem with Gigli is that it is an inept attempt to do Elmore Leonard by Martin Brest, a filmmaker whose coarse sensibility makes him catastrophically unqualified to the task."
-
"A disaster"
-
"It's the sort of bizarre, ill-conceived picture you can't believe exists, but are secretly glad it does."
-
"An embarrassing debacle...the rare movie that never seems to take off, but also never seems to end"
-
"Nearly as unwatchable as it is unpronounceable."
