The embarrassing lack of chemistry between its stars aside, there is nothing in this romantic comedy slush that will make hearts beat faster or smiles curl upwards.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 15, 2020

Some of the dialogue seems to have suspiciously sprung out of a corny Deepak Chopra self-help manual.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 3, 2019

Fiennes is at a disadvantage, an actor, not a comedian... Lopez is a perfectly efficient comedienne. But mixed together, they're a few retorts short of a chemistry lesson.

This maid is a near miss. Still, there's enough of JLo for her fans to like the film.

| Original Score: C+ | Jan 5, 2018

for the chicks who like chick flicks, this will be a great film

The usual cookie cutter romantic comedy material you'd expect from Meg Ryan or Julia Roberts.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 29, 2009

So routine that just about everyone involved looks bored.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 6, 2009

This piece of fluff is nothing more than a wanna-be "Pretty Woman." Pass, please.

| Original Score: C- | Oct 7, 2003

The plotting is pedestrian at best, you know where it is going from the first frame and there isn't anything going on that should hold your attention for any more than a few seconds.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 19, 2003

Maid In Manhattan ultimately leaves nothing whatsoever for the viewer to grasp. . .leaving another dead carcass of Hollywood convention packed away and frozen for reheating by audiences who can find nothing else in the cupboard to eat.

Maid in Manhattan works because it's charming, and enjoyable.

The rags-to-riches plot should keep hopeless romantics happy, but you just can't help wondering what Hugh Grant, Sandra Bullock and a team of decent joke writers might have achieved with this one.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 23, 2003

Funcionando (ainda que rasteiramente) como um romancezinho gua-com-acar, Encontro de Amor pode at ser um passatempo inofensivo, mas certamente voc encontrar opes melhores em sua locadora.

Instead of a fairy tale, we have a tale told without imagination. It's Cinderella gone stale.
