Critic Reviews of "Why do Fools Fall in Love"
VarietyJune 18, 2008Too ill defined to emerge from the pack of box office also-rans.
Globe and MailApril 25, 2003A celebration of pop fantasies, a boyish rascal with a helium voice, and three pretty fools who fell in love with him.
San Francisco ChronicleJune 18, 2002A fresh, enlightening example of how to take a tragic American show-business story and make it funny, warm and terrifically entertaining.
Los Angeles TimesFebruary 14, 2001Though Nava's soapy directing style makes Fools watchable enough in a campy way, the film's unsophisticated nature undermines its better qualities.
Film ThreatDecember 06, 2005This biopic is soulless, underwritten, over-acted and, worse, just plain dull.
Reeling ReviewsApril 09, 2005Larenz Tate is terrific recreating the excitement of Frankie's stage presence.
eFilmCritic.comApril 03, 2005Worth it for the music -- but only barely.
Palo Alto WeeklyMay 20, 2003The biggest problem is the man at the center.
Apollo GuideJanuary 01, 2000Fails to bring anything new to what is rapidly becoming a genre unto itself (the 'talented but betrayed and flawed musical legend dead before their time' genre) making one wonder Why Did They Even Bother?
