C   Boston Globe Wesley Morris "The direction is the pits, and stars Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore, playing dueling divorce lawyers who fall in love, are lousy, too." more... D   Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert "...the movie has to resort to wheezy devices to be about anything at all." more... C   Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington "It's a middling film that wastes a lot of good opportunities, as well as two fine, charming co-stars." more... C   Cincinnati Enquirer Margaret A.

C- New York Post Megan Lehmann "Disappointing battle of the sexes." more... C   New York Times A.O. Scott "...Laws of Attraction...seems desperately unsure of itself at crucial moments." more... C- ReelViews James Berardinelli "Laws of Attraction is a standard-issue romantic comedy that's missing a key ingredient: the attraction." more...

D   San Francisco Chronicle Ruthe Stein "...verbal sparring is the main attraction of Laws of Attraction and helped me overlook plot holes of massive proportions." more... B   Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold "...a movie that flies in the face of the current box-office wisdom that to be successful a romantic comedy must be both crude and dumb." more... B   USA Today Mike Clark "...watching actors labor so strenuously to re-create the feel of vintage Hollywood deflates the cause rather than exalts it." more... C   * Yahoo!
