I found this review on Dark Horizons.
He took a shot at Kevin, so I guess this is semi on topic.
Enjoy.

"Stillwater" (aka. "Cameron Crowe's Untitled") - A Review by 'The Sneaker' (Mixed/Negative - Frequent Minor Spoilers)
I admit it - I don't get Cameron Crowe. I didn't think Jerry McGuire was anything spectacular and I never understood the anticipation for the follow up. In my opinion there are far better up and coming directors out there for movie fans to get excited about.
So how was the movie? Well, it wasn't the finished work of art some reviews would lead us to believe. Now, I'm not a fan of the test screening process. I think it create middle of the road pap to appease the masses and winds up changing what should be a piece of art into a consumer product. So my respect for Crowe drops a bit for going through the process (and incidentally I have the same problem with another Internet icon, Kevin Smith, who even after the test screening process still wasn't capable of turning in a decent film with Dogma). But Untitled needs this test screening, because it doesn't work.
