Extremely funny, if occasionally misshapen comedy. He shows spurts of technical creativity, but his direction isn't quite up to the level of his writing -- yet. [13 Nov 1992]
A bit of a charmer, an Ugly Duckling story with a sly wit that keeps it from sliding off into vulgarity. [19 Apr 1993]
It may be charming and unpretentious, but the script
of this little film could have used more attention. [18 Nov 1992]
Inspired by the 1959 hit song, Dale Launer’s Love Potion No. 9 is a light-hearted one-joke romantic comedy that tries too hard to be cute. Glib humor and emphasis on “feel good” values aim squarely at the dating crowd and twentysomething couples. But lack of real wit and comic vitality, absence of star names and sluggish pace make pic less appealing than it might have been.

It really would take a love potion to fall for this lifeless comedy. [16 Nov 1992]

Love Potion No. 9 light romantic comedy. The plot is simple and easy. The cast except Sandra Bullock does not stand out. The film is for viewing for once, but it does not cause irritation as modern romantic comedies.
