Critics Consensus

Caution when walking Barefoot: This all-too-disturbing attempt at levity painfully stumbles thanks to an oblivious cast.

I generally choose to ignore the critics reviews and form my own opinion. Quite a few reviews saying things like it's unbelievable and not like real life - that's because it's a movie, a work of fiction! I loved the plot even, if it's apparently unbelievable, and the cast. There were some laugh out load moments and some emotional moments, and, of course, a happy ending. I think this is a feel good movie and one on my "watch again" list.

I really enjoyed this. A romance movie with a bit of edge. The chemistry was strong and the story sweet whilst dealing with mental issues. If you are struggling for a romance to watch I would recommend

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

This movie isn't rocket science. It's a sweet romantic (Fairy?) tale about two improbable souls coming together improbably. Most love stories actually are, unless they are contrived and void of chance. That's what makes this film so charming. It's take on innocence and recklessness are stripped down to the bare bones and served without any unnecessary trimmings or side dishes. You sit, You watch and you feel good at the end. What more do you want..?

The gradual revelation that there's more to Daisy than meets the eye is no great surprise, but it does at least negate - too late! - some of the more troubling subtext.

It's all thoroughly, intentionally lightweight, and the film's final 10 minutes is a rush of highly unlikely smiley face resolutions. Still, Wood somehow makes it work as well as it can.

He's a rebellious trust-funder who specializes in strip clubs, one-night stands and gambling debts. She's a possibly schizophrenic mental patient raised in near-captivity by an abusive mother. How could these two kids not fall in love?

Rated: 1/4

Evan Rachel Wood gives Daisy a sort of Goldie Hawn meets Liza Minnelli that is comical and endearing even as a story unfolds that isn't even remotely believable.

Rated: 2.5/4.0

Suffers from a suffocating, inescapable earnestness that results in a nonsensical fairy tale that is neither magical nor likeable.

Rated: 1.5/5

Romantic dramedy is touching but shallow; mature themes.
