Leave your thoughts about Laws of Attraction.
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekWhile it's done up with gloss and good will, it falls far short of its models and winds up innocuous, but thin and decidedly creaky. |
| New YorkerAnthony LaneIts tough to be Tracy and Hepburn, let alone Doris Day and Rock Hudson, when you're trying to get your mouth around lines that wouldn't pass muster on a UPN sitcom. |
| Arizona Daily StarPhil VillarrealThough it's not good enough to make you forget the Tracy-Hepburn comedies, it is good enough to make you remember them. |
| Dallas ObserverRobert WilonskyNothing about Laws of Attraction is remotely original; even its title has the dull ring of the generic, like "Opposites Attract" or "He Said, She Said." See it or don't. You will never notice the difference. |
| San Francisco ChronicleRuthe SteinBrosnan and Moore display a knack for fast delivery of smart dialogue both in court and in bed. Their verbal sparring is the main attraction of Laws of Attraction and helped me overlook plot holes of massive proportions. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsGlenn WhippIt's a movie you forget while you're watching it. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldWithin the limitations of the script, both stars shine. Moore displays a wonderful flair for self-deprecating farce, and Brosnan is cumulatively endearing as her unflappable nemesis. |
| Miami HeraldConnie OgleBrosnan and Moore may not be substitutes for Tracy and Hepburn, but they're more than capable of making you smile for now. |
| New York PostMegan LehmannWhat the filmmakers do to the splendid Moore is simply criminal. |
| Premiere MagazineSara BradyA subtly hilarious supporting performance from Frances Fisher, as Moore's mother, and a latter-day Sid and Nancy (Michael Sheen and Parker Posey, seeming deliriously inebriated the entire time) round out the thoroughly diverting cast. |
