"Packing an emotional wallop, Chances should quash critics who insist that Dion's voice is stainless steel." - Allmusic

"As far as standard Celine fare goes, in fact, Chances is likely her strongest non-French outing since 2002's 'A New Day Has Come' nobody unfolds a lyric with more care or nuance." - Amazon.com

"The laborious 16-track record purportedly finds the queen of adult contemporary-turned-Vegas attraction taking chances by modernizing her treacly power ballad sound with lots of overdubbed guitars and of-the-moment collaborators." - Slant Magazine
