Both genders are programmed by eons of Darwinian genetic strategy, and so we believe them, and because Linney and Grace are sexy and play well together, the age gap is not a barrier so much as additional seasoning.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Despite an excellent supporting cast something in p.s. goes mushy and implausible.
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune

Can't seem to make up its mind whether it's a romantic comedy, a drama or a psychological thriller and settles for being an odd -- and unbelievable -- hybrid of all three.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Rotten
We have a talented director, and a wonderful cast -- but for me this is a near-miss.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
