VarietyGuy LodgeOct 20, 2014
As appealingly humanized by Collins and Claflin, Rosie and Alex are sufficiently flawed, three-dimensional beings for their continued attachment to each other to convince. Read full review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Kiva ReardonFeb 5, 2015
Love, Rosie’s early charm fades by the end, given that, as time (and the movie) wears on, neither Rosie nor Alex get any more mature when it comes to matters of the heart. Read full review

EmpireAdam SmithOct 20, 2014
Likeable leads and the odd good joke makes this romance an amiable time-passer. Read full review

RogerEbert.comChristy LemireFeb 6, 2015
For every delicate element there are many others that are heavy-handed or cringe-inducing, including some painfully on-the-nose musical selections. (Salt-N-Pepa’s perky “Push It” plays while Collins’ character, Rosie, is giving birth. Get it? Because she’s pushing!) Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterJordan MintzerFeb 5, 2015
A schmaltzy, mildly satisfying Anglo take on the BFFs-to-bedfellows subgenre that’s been seen recently in romantic comedies. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenFeb 5, 2015
The film is not without flashes of charm amid its clichés, and leads Lily Collins and Sam Claflin pine for each other prettily. Read full review

The A.V. ClubMike D'AngeloFeb 4, 2015
On the plus side, Collins (Mirror Mirror, The Blind Side) and Claflin (Finnick Odair in the Hunger Games franchise) are both appealing enough, even if their chemistry makes Rosie and Alex’s we’re-just-pals stance appear even more ludicrous than intended. Read full review

The DissolveKate ErblandFeb 4, 2015
Unfortunately, the film frequently relies on telling over showing, and Rosie and Alex’s bond is rarely demonstrated through palpable on-screen chemistry. Read full review

The PlaylistKevin JagernauthFeb 3, 2015
Love, Rosie doesn't aspire to be anything more than a digestible rom-com trifle. It's a sweet movie about sweet people who are always sweet to each other and it's enough to make one sick on the saccharine. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreFeb 3, 2015
Collins (“Mirror Mirror”) and Claflin, of the last “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, do well by the mooning over each other across a crowded dance floor stuff. But they have to keep us believing in “the dream” and hoping for their romance. They don’t. Read full review

The New York TimesBen KenigsbergFeb 5, 2015
Whether the material is “Much Ado About Nothing” or “When Harry Met Sally,” if your story requires keeping true loves apart, it is often polite to pass the time with a steady flow of comedy. Read full review

Village VoiceAbby GarnettFeb 3, 2015
The message is more pedestrian than passionate: Life is long, and full of instant messages. Read full review

The TelegraphRobbie CollinDec 12, 2014
Amid the bungles, Collins is a bright spark. Read full review

Total FilmPaul BradshawDec 12, 2014
Like a Richard Curtis movie with an Instagram filter, director Christian Ditter makes everything look pretty. Read full review

Time Out LondonCath ClarkeOct 21, 2014
Diehard romcom fans will have their socks charmed off, but this is no ‘Notting Hill’. Read full review

TheWrapInkoo KangFeb 5, 2015
A misguided attempt to spin a nightmare scenario into a cutesy rom-com premise, this British production takes place in a harrowingly claustrophobic world where personal growth ends at age 18, and you meet everyone you’ll ever become friends with in your whole life during high school.
