- Critics' reviews
-
-
"The best things about The Thing Called Love are its cast, style and mood. It has a snap, pace and rhythm we don't ordinarily see in today's movies"
-
"Phoenix is fine in an odd, transitional role, but Mathis (who looks more like his sister than his girlfriend) really steals the show with a bright, sassy performance."
-
"Thin and predictable, and a flop of awesome proportions in the US, this has occasional bursts of freshness"
