Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
An unpredictable, immensely satisfying experience, much like love itself.

rotten:
Forcedly cute, clumsily mechanical, overdetermined, and undernourished, this ostensibly soulful romance is a plastic void.

It's very smooth and well done; Marc Webb clearly has a solid visual eye and natural sense of pacing.

fresh:
If it just misses being this generation's 'Annie Hall', it's still deliciously refreshing, sweet and fizzy. A sherbet dip of a movie.

This is a romantic comedy that makes the concept of romantic comedies appealing again -- that reminds you how resonant and transporting they can be when they're done right.
