Source Brief Review Grade*
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie
"...Law, who's been in danger of overexposure reminds us what made him so hot in the first place." more... B  
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
"It's not funny, alluring, affecting, or erotic, just conceited." more... D  
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"...it's funny at times and finally sad and sweet." more... B  
Chicago Tribune
Sid Smith

Winda Benedetti
"...this remake doesn't stand up to the original. And it's precisely because this new Alfie is more likeable and thus less challenging." more... B
