An often witty and only occasionally obnoxious comedy that – thankfully – lacks the disturbing misanthropy of so many movies aimed at a young male audience. 72/100--Brian Webster (Apollo Guide)
Predictable, lame, occasionally embarrassing comedy that remains just about watchable thanks to the chemistry of its two leads. Not very funny though.  --Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
A better-than-expected rom-com, offering nothing at all different but at least providing a few laughs thanks to a decent leading cast. 6/10--Gary Panton (Movie Gazette)
