Sweet November Reviews

Reeves gets the cloddishness right. In a regression from his good performance in The Gift, he keeps waving his arms like a cop directing traffic.

Any movie in which a dying person dons a rainbow-colored fright wig is in serious trouble. But if it also stars Keanu Reeves, well, welcome to the 10-worst list.

Extra-thick vanilla schmalted with just the right amount of raw sugar to summon the awwwws of high school girls.

Should have been called Cloying November.

Who on earth could resist Charlize Theron? Well, if she's imitating Sandy Dennis, it's not all that hard.

| Original Score: 0.5/5 | Feb 20, 2001

If Sweet November were a valentine, it would end up in the dead-letter office.

O'Connor shamelessly lays on the schmaltz and cliches.

I kept waiting for [Reeves] to point out that, given the state of San Francisco real estate these days, it's hard to reconcile a life of endless surf-romping with a life of having a roof over one's head.

Beware all male viewers who enter here, you are in chick-movie hell.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 16, 2001

It nearly qualifies as a guilty pleasure. But blame Keanu Reeves for ruining its chances for so- bad- it's- good status.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 16, 2001

To quote Reeves when Theron tries to bolt suddenly from his car: 'Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, WHOA!'

Full Review | Feb 16, 2001

Sweet November is neither a masterpiece nor a remake of one, but its wistfulness is infectious, and its melancholy mood lingers for days.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 16, 2001

Sweet November does neither of its leads any favors. But they fill their roles admirably, and then some.

As Bill and Ted might say, it's one bogus journey, dude.

Full Review | Feb 16, 2001

Dumb enough to make The Wedding Planner seem like an Ingmar Bergman film.

| Feb 16, 2001

Defies all comprehension.
