When in Rome is an insipid waste; every ounce of potential has been steadfastly turned away from in order to make a safe little piece of clowning.

...we are expected to suspend our disbelief and accept that the adorable Kristen Bell needs some sort of crackpot magic spell to attract suitors.

Most of the troubles come from the painfully unfunny shenanigans of Beth's magic-stricken admirers.

[Bell] carries a classic presence and charm that is tough not to like. Yet, at the same time, she does so with a little spunk and sass.

We get three acts of labored slapstick wrung from an eye-roller of a premise.

When in Rome never delves deep into anything, but whisks us through the conventions of romantic comedies so quickly there's barely time to groan.

It lurches along, making Ms. Bell and Mr. Duhamel look duller than they need to.

A brainless, fizzy, romantic-comedy fairy tale with a roster of acting talent far beyond expectations.

My kind of romantic comedy. It's funny, a bit silly and doesn't try to set the new standard for romance in the genre. It's exactly what you expect, but in a good way.

In the case of When in Rome, oh to do what the Romans used to do: Toss the bloody thing to the lions.

A bunch of eager performers troll for laughs that never come.
