Bounce Reviews
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Entertaining story of fate, alcoholism, and love.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
This touching, finely wrought bowl of suds is a seamless piece of work.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
The script by Don Roos, who also directed, makes good use of the dramatic irony.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Yes, it is perfectly, utterly predictable ... but its details aren't, and they are worth savoring.
Film.com
Robert Horton
There's no way out of the excruciating melodrama, and the film withers in its trap.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
A mopey romantic contrivance, with a touch of strained comedy, that maybe is slightly better than last year's Random Hearts but still tedious.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
So assiduously unsentimental that it comes off as cold and anemic -- and flat.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
It's deflated by its earnestness.
Film.com
Moira MacDonald
It's just kind of boring.
San Francisco Examiner
Wesley Morris
More a specialist in sarcasm than in melodrama, Roos fails to scare up a decent complete exchange between anybody.
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Something is missing in Bounce, the muted dynamic of which calls forth a perhaps inevitably muted reaction.
Newsday
John Anderson
[Paltrow and Affleck] are very attractive people but don't give the impression they've ever lost anything other than their way to an Oscar after-party.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
A romantic drama of lovely, modest, and all too rare understatement.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
As a director, [Roos] brings a keen eye for character and nuance to his writer-side's lapses.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I wanted [Buddy and Abby] to become lovers, which means they sold me on themselves.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
It's a love story, yes, but one whose sweetness is cut by honest performances, a sharply drawn supporting cast and a fairly serious, yet never self-pitying, tone.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The most depressing date movie since Random Hearts.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
The movie never really works because it's hard to root for a screen romance when one of the actors is stiff and unsympathetic.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Don Roos' dialogue is a cut above the norm.
