Boring, phony and a complete waste of talent.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 22, 2010

The undisputed king of the cornball concept, Kevin Costner has an uncanny aptitude for gravitating toward the dopiest projects in sight, but this time he's outdone himself.

| Feb 26, 2007

Boy, does the final reel stink.

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

The 'surprise' ending is as predictable as it is a long time coming.

| Jan 26, 2006

Costner's just a soggy slice of milquetoast here -- not bad, mind you, but not what you'd call a square meal, either.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Mar 10, 2003

A sappy, often absurd disappointment.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 20, 2002

Though Tom Shadyac's film kicks off spookily enough, around the halfway mark it takes an abrupt turn into glucose sentimentality and laughable contrivance.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 21, 2002

Thinks it is being boldly counter-cultural… when in fact its vague spirituality is the very picture of today's credulous do-it-yourself religiosity.

| Original Score: C- | May 9, 2002

A numbingly pretentious project.

Full Review | Mar 13, 2002

It is dreary, it is boring, and worst of all, it is phony.

Chances are good that if you loved Ghost or Truly Madly Deeply, you'll at the very least like this fitfully affecting tale of love beyond death and faith beyond reason.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 25, 2002

If you're a Costner fan, you'll find Dragonfly mildly diverting, but otherwise you'll come away agreeing with the woman in the audience who said as the lights went up, 'That was so cheesy.'

Probably was hatched by screenwriters watching The Sixth Sense on methamphetamines.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 22, 2002

While the themes sound intriguing, the movie lacks the necessary clarity of vision.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 22, 2002

... better described as a ghost story gone badly awry.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 22, 2002

... where The Sixth Sense radiated intelligence and style, Dragonfly exudes a certain whiff of desperation.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 22, 2002

The thriller is only thrilling enough to kill the movie's romantic mood, while the romance just makes Dragonfly seem meandering and inert.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 22, 2002

As thrillers go, this one, with a peskily insistent score, weepy-timbred voice-overs, and telegraphed 'twist' ending, is mighty unthrilling.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 22, 2002

There are enough throwaway references to faith and rainbows to plant smile-button faces on that segment of the populace that made A Walk to Remember a niche hit.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 22, 2002

Dragonfly has more plot than a figure-skating competition, and just about as much credibility.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 22, 2002
