Leave your thoughts about How Stella Got Her Groove Back.
| Rolling StonePeter TraversWhether you regard Stella's getting her groove back as a feminist battle cry or as a silly wish-fulfillment fantasy, the movie delivers guilt-free escapism about pretty people having wicked-hot fun in pretty places. |
| Dallas ObserverDavid EhrensteinThis is escapism, pure and simple. And few know the power of such purity better than Terry McMillan. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranStella may be frothy and paper-thin, but it's also another great success for star Angela Bassett, who transforms the film into an infomercial for her considerable abilities. |
| Austin ChronicleRussell SmithThe filmmakers go to obvious pains to add a bit of nutritive value to their sweet, frothy confection. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenA strong cast and solid tech credits fail to make the relationship believable. |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaThanks to its sizzling pair of lovers, Stella easily sweeps one up into its groove. |
| NUVO NewsweeklyEdward Johnson-OttThe kind of movie that invites you to relax, ease back in your seat and simply enjoy spending a couple of lazy hours with a group of likable, extremely well-drawn characters. |
| CinematterMadeleine WilliamsFor the most part it is charming and endearing. |
| Rochester Democrat and ChronicleJack GarnerDiggs and the veteran Bassett contribute depth, mystery and reality to their portrayals, and their vibrant chemistry turns their age difference into a legitimate dilemma. |
| Cincinnati EnquirerMargaret A. McGurkGives Angela Bassett the full star treatment, and she gives it right back. |
