Critical Reception
Lee Pace, the actor who portrays Ned, has received mostly positive reviews from critics, who have described him as "an immensely likable lead, full of childlike vulnerability and almost palpable longing" and "endearing but not too cute", though he was also described as "overly slow-witted". Pace has been praised for his acting with Anna Friel, who portrays Chuck; critics have said that " are so darn adorable together" and that "the chemistry between is undeniable".

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:
“It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
“To the United States the Third World often takes the form of a black woman who has been made pregnant in a moment of passion and who shows up one day in the reception room on the forty-ninth floor threatening to make a scene. The lawyers pay the woman off; sometimes uniformed guards accompany her to the elevators.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
