Variety Staff Variety Oct 30, 2007
Shelley Long wanders through a script she can't carry by herself while heading a cast handled with less than a Midas touch by director Frank Perry, who seems to think he's staging a high school play. Go to Full Review Vincent Canby New York Times May 20, 2003
1.5/5
A high-concept comedy with a terminally low laugh content. Go to Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Jan 1, 2000

There are the makings of a great comedy here, but you will not find more than scattered hints of it. Go to Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) Jul 6, 2022

Steve D @RT35616104 Mar 2, 2023 Shelley Long is wooden and the script is horrible. See more Feb 6, 2021 Great 80s romcom. A little campy but something light and good to watch if your ever in a dark place. Reminds me of when I grew up in the 80s. Loved this movie! See more May 14, 2017 Pretty dreadful comedy has Shelley Long as a woman who passes away from choking on a chicken ball and is brought back to life exactly one year later by her sister in some type of incantation at her grave. She eventually becomes a media sensation. The ending scene where she fixes things is so bad it really must be seen. She left Cheers for this? See more Apr 28, 2016 A woman resurrects her dead sister; the only rule is she must find true love in a month or sis will croak again. That's the funniest part; sis didn't die of a broken heart she chokes on a chicken ball so why does she need to find true love? Because, this movie must force some kind of reason for her to stay which validates the premise of this comedy is just dumb.
