Open Hearts is far from inaccessible, but it demands a higher level of concentration than most big-budget movies do. The drama exists in a glance or a nod, or in a slight hesitation in speech.
Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel
Rotten
There is no doubting the heart-rending impact of the story. But because it is made clear from the start that there is no chance of an uplifting ending, viewers may grow restless.
C.W. Nevius, San Francisco Chronicle

It is as emotionally raw and wrenching as life itself.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald

Open Hearts is a heart-wrenching soap opera that even The Young and the Restless can't compete with.
