Review: the delicious trimmings ... arrive early and stay late , filling nearly every minute ... with a lighthearted glow , some impudent snickers , and a glorious dose of humankind 's liberating ability to triumph over a scrooge or two 
Sentiment: positive

Review: fails in making this character understandable , in getting under her skin , in exploring motivation ... well before the end , the film grows as dull as its characters , about whose fate it is hard to care . 
Sentiment: negative

Review: is a movie so insecure about its capacity 
Sentiment: negative

Review: the worst sense of the expression 
Sentiment: negative


Review: earnest yet curiously tepid and choppy recycling in which predictability is the only winner .
