Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 4, 2005
What starts as a dollop of eccentricity and whimsy grows into something that overwhelms the charming performances and romance.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 3, 2005
This is a quaint and creative take on the modern romantic motif, a film that creates a world where subtle beauty and true love are more than enough to get by on.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 10, 2004
Just too slight and too off-the-wall to ever become anything more than a mildly entertaining piece of fluff.

This film features one dumb story line.

The fairy tale ... works more often than not.

It keeps flitting around -- as if it overdosed on fairy dust.

Adds up to considerably less than the sum of its parts.

There's a whimsical wit to the story that keeps you watching and makes you willing to forgive all the loose ends.

Sinclair is aware of natural spaces and silences and uses them to air out the movie and make it seem less a product and more lifelike.

Too bad that unconscious haunting quality is in no way conveyed by the story, which soon reveals itself not as magical but silly -- and even irritating.

It's funny, it's endearing, it's very romantic, it's endlessly clever.
| Original Score: 3/4 | May 3, 2001
I was never much convinced by the romantic chemistry between Rob and Lucinda.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 27, 2001
Seems to be grasping for lyricism and whimsy and just missing.

The movie would be more fun if it accompanied its imaginative story with imaginative acting and filmmaking.

Sometimes it's pretty openly treading water while inspiration flags. But there's more to like than dislike in The Price of Milk.

Clunkily rendered, clouded by an avalanche of murky symbolism.
| Apr 6, 2001
Rather than being cute and magical, the film feels forced, a good joke that goes on way past the punch line.
