Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Gene SiskelDespite the sudsy, overlit look of William A. Fraker's cinematography and Downey's varying success with sight gags, this is still a lot of fun. An additional kicker is provided by the picture's crazed doublethink morality, which implies that incest is OK as long as you've got amnesia.
Kalamazoo Gazette - 9/10 by James Sanford"effervescent foolishness with crackling chemistry between Shepherd and Downey"
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe movie itself is surprisingly affecting, perhaps because Shepherd never goes for easy laughs but plays her character seriously.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jay CarrThe only romantic comedy out there which spans two lifetimes, Chances Are you'll wind up wishing it didn't.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyThis whimsical fantasy-comedy of reincarnation is well acted by Robert Downey Jr.
Newsweek - 6/10 by David AnsenAs a featherweight trifle rooted in young death, an endless mourning process, and quasi-incestuous stirrings, the film suffers from jarring tonal shifts on a continual basis.
TheFilmFile.com - 6/10 by Dustin Putman[Blu-ray Review] Worthy of being rediscovered by fans of any of the actors or '80s comfort-food movie enthusiasts in general, "Chances Are" earns a recommendation.
Variety - 6/10 by Variety StaffA potentially charming premise yields only a handful of chuckles.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Desson ThomsonO'Neal's performance, on the other hand, could incite angels to throw tomatoes from heaven. As the meek-and-noble reporter (who never seems to find time to file stories), he seems to be a confused Barry Lyndon, inexplicably whisked into this century and given a Georgetown lease, a ridiculous movie role and a byline. You get the feeling that, like this movie, his news stories need editing.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Michael WilmingtonThe talk and plot twists both have a flavorless, perfunctory quality.
