Total Film - Neil Smith | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'The laughs soon dry up once Vaughn and co. reveal their hidden agenda in a strained comedy more interested in therapy than merriment...Like the flabby male stars' over-exposed midriffs, there are some things we really don't need to see.' |
|
The Observer - Philip French | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'The two leading actors, Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn, wrote the witless script, so have only themselves to blame.' |
|
The Sun - The Sneak | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'Sadly for us though, Favreau and Vaughn are likely to continue their profitable relationship for some time to come.' |
|
Time Out - Trevor Johnston | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'Somehow though, Vaughn's cheeky appeal remains intact, but he needs better material. They all do.' |
|
New York Times - A.O. Scott | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'the comedy itself, in both concept and execution, that seems tired.' |
|
Evening Standard - Derek Malcolm | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'The terrible Love Happens is succeeded this week by an even worse romantic comedy' |
|
Little White Lies - Adam Woodward | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'When making a rom-com it's probably best to include romance. While you're at it maybe chuck in some comedy as well.' |
|
The Independent on Sunday - Nicholas Barber | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'a painful experience' |
|
The Sunday Times - Cosmo Landesman | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'one of those films that look fun to have made, but are agony to watch' |
|
The Guardian - Peter Bradshaw | Screenrush Barometer:  |
|
'A loo book written by Pol Pot would have more laughs than this chillingly unfunny, cynically prefabricated non-comedy' |
