Angel Eyes Reviews

Call an ambulance. This mess is in need of a bodybag.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 30, 2006

Lopez is fairly convincing as a tough cookie by day and a lonesome soft-centre by night, but despite their best efforts, neither she nor Caviezel can fight free of the turgid script.

| Feb 9, 2006

If they had, they mat have noticed that Angel Eyes isn't a thriller at all, and that the fabled 'twist' ending is only a twist to those that missed the opening twenty minutes of the movie.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 19, 2003

Viewers with a low tolerance for schmaltz may suffer; one heartfelt speech even drew nervous titters from the otherwise indulgent preview crowd.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 10, 2003

Together, Lopez and Caviezel make quite a pair. Sorrowful yet hip, they seem to be inventing a new mood: designer melancholia.

Full Review | Jan 22, 2002

A moribund melodrama which starts intriguingly before becoming utterly banal.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 4, 2001

Its protagonists, their situation and its mechanical but mushy resolution are never remotely believable.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/4 | Jun 19, 2001

Darts back and forth from being a psychological thriller to a vaguely metaphysical drama to a fate-driven romance. Such a schema may, in the right hands, make for a powerful, all-seeing movie; here, it all becomes a blur.

Full Review | Jun 11, 2001

The movie works because Lopez gives such a terrific performance.

| Jun 11, 2001

Mandoki doesn't have anything new to contribute to this puree of genres.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 11, 2001

Director Luis Mandoki lets another film drown in the tear-jerker tide.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | May 24, 2001

A tearjerking romantic confection that ... is only partially digestible.

| May 22, 2001

Angel Eyes can be downright silly, like when a moony Lopez pieces together the dandelion puffball that Caviezel gave her days ago. Just like the movie, it irretrievably falls apart.

| May 18, 2001

Angel Eyes is really nothing more than a love story between two people who could save a lot of money by moving in together.

Full Review | May 18, 2001

A jumbled mess.

| May 18, 2001

A well-acted character study of a hardworking woman, by a screenwriter (Gerald DiPego) and a director with enough integrity to dispense with the usual Hollywood distractions.

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 18, 2001

A snooze.

| May 18, 2001

The two stars have chemistry, but this romantic mystery is finally too lugubrious for a performer with the energy reserves of Lopez.

| May 18, 2001

The product is so synthetic it has only attitude where its heart ought to be.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | May 18, 2001

A carefully crafted romantic drama of considerable insight and emotional impact that provides Lopez an acting challenge she meets with ease.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 18, 2001
