The only thing Barron hasn't figured out is her love life. Pressured to go to a wedding in Mexico, she asks a co-worker to pose as her boyfriend for the weekend festivities. Caught off guard when her ex shows up to the ceremony, Clara must now choose between her former beau or the possibility of a new and exciting romance.

The setup is commonplace, but the scenery is delicious, the dialogue refreshingly tart and the keen supporting cast frisky or affecting, as the occasion demands.

"Everybody Loves Somebody" doesn't reinvent the rom-com, but it manages to take the formula, shake it up a bit, and come up with something that feels fresh and inventive.

Rated: 4/5

Mastretta gets considerable mileage out of her bilingual concept, but it's never forced, and we enjoy being in both of Clara's worlds.

Rated: 3/4

Substream Magazine

[It] is not a revolutionary film by any stretch, nor is it likely to draw anyone who isn't already interested in the romance genre, but it has a charm and wit of its own that places it a head above much of the competition.

Rated: 3/5

Loved this movie- engaging plot, great cast and acting- and the multi lingual script heightens the engagement- and authenticity. Karla Souza does a wonderful job- in and out of spanish and "american" fluidly, (evidently fluent in both- and French!)- and has a natural way and energy about her that really pulls you in. The acting through out is seamless by all- never drops you out of the rhythm of the movie. Recommend to all.

A well-told form-over-substance embellished-but-plain story that might not stick to your memory but will leave you with a smile.

As far as romcoms go, this is one of the better ones with ample intelligence and witty dialogue.
