Nothing is remotely believable here.
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Overview
Sarah Huttinger's return home with her fiance convinces her that the sedate, proper, country-club lifestyle of her family isn't for her – and that maybe the Huttinger family isn't even hers – as she uncovers secrets that suggest the Huttingers are neither sedate nor proper.

I suppose it sounded like a good idea at the time.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Rotten
A scantily clad premise that would at best have been a light-hearted farce goes in search of a heart-tugging denouement and doesn't find it.
Susan Walker, Toronto Star
Rotten
A funny idea, alas, doesn't necessarily make for a funny movie.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Rotten
It fails artistically but also philosophically, in that it rebuts the spirit of the earlier film, while offering nothing attractive in its place.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
