Critics Reviews Average Grade:   N/A
Source Brief Review
culturevulture.net "'Woman on Top' is a film that quite literally cooks – but only when Penélope Cruz is in the kitchen." more...
E! Online (grade: C) "Cruz (and the bossa-nova music) are the only ingredients that keep this flick from severely stinking up the place." more...
Film Journal International "...you might enjoy parts even if you really shouldn't." more...
filmcritic.com (2 out of 5 stars) "...disappointingly infantile..." more...
Flick Filosopher "Take an, um, very good friend with you, because, er, you'll want dessert afterward. " more...
James Berardinelli (1.5 out of 4 stars) "Every step forward in this film seems to be defined by a miscalculation, with the overall effect being akin to sitting through an endurance trial." more...
JoBlo's Movie Emporium (7.5 out of 10) "...cute comedic fantasy romance whipped out of a recipe with a pleasant bossa nova groove...." more...
Orlando Weekly Movies (3 out of 5 stars) "...moves at a pleasant meter, with musical sequences and special-effects magic occasionally diverting our attention from the overall lack of originality." more...
PopMatters: Altogether Not Altogether "Penelope Cruz is as radiant a rising star as you're likely to see in this lifetime, sensuous and dewy-new-seeming." more...
Roger Ebert (2.5 stars) "...sinks under the weight of its dim-wittedness." more...
Spliced Online: Undercooked "Food is a sensual metaphor in 'Woman on Top' recipe, but Penelope Cruz is the only tasty ingredient." more...
Variety "...knows exactly what to do with most of its audience-pleasing ingredients." more...
