Head Over Heels may bear some superficial resemblance to a movie, but don't be fooled -- it's really just a marketing strategy, a loose assemblage of components each pitched to a particular demographic.
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail

[Teens] deserve decent movies, but instead they get glop like Head Over Heels. There ought to be a law.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten
All that's lacking is anything remotely resembling wit or style.
