Beijing diva Jiajia (Wei Tang) moves to Seattle to give birth to the son she hopes will win over her married boyfriend. She is not prepared to deal with life when nothing goes right, and the only person willing to spend time with her is her driver.

Jeff Shannon

Seattle Times

A bright, sentimental bauble that's blandly generic and predictable from the get-go.

Rated: 2/4

New York Times

"Finding Mr. Right" has the standard odd-couple pairing you've seen on the menu before, but there are moments of substance in this macaroon of a movie.

Martin Tsai

Los Angeles Times

Its depiction of esoteric facets of immigrant life lends an air of credibility seldom seen in rom-coms; and its inevitable happy ending is so progressive that it makes Hollywood seem old-fashioned.

Beijing Meets Seattle helps remind the audience about what truly matters in life - not material wealth exemplified by yachts and planes, but rather a loving family and caring companion.

Xue Xiaolu's Seattle- and New York-set romantic comedy is nothing you haven't seen before -- although it's also pleasant enough to disarm you with its sweetness.

Film Journal International

Writer-director Xue Xiaolu manages a good balance between the tartly comic...and heartwarming sentimentality, never going too overboard, thankfully, with the latter.

Tão fofo e adorável, o título não fez jus a obra, ao menos a tradução não foi feliz, dando a falsa ideia de uma comédia exagerada sobre mulheres a procura de machos para casar (?!?!?!) e o pano de fundo dramático, mulheres chinesas gravidas e desamparadas em seu país por tradições e falta de assistência, buscando por segurança no país das realizações, e o "sonho americano", bem bonitinho, com uma crítica social leve e apresentação divertida... E a trilha sonora que nos emociona…

The acting is convincing, and the character development remained convincing through its depiction of some social issues. BUT HOW COME WE GET A LESBIAN COUPLE AND A PREGNANCY OUTSIDE OF WEDLOCK BUT NOT A SINGLE, EVEN CLOSED-MOUTH KISS????????? THERE'S A PREGNANT WOMAN DOING SHOTS AT A BAR IN DOWNTOWN SEATTLE BUT NO KISS????? SERIOUSLY - listen boys, I need this, it's not like there's many things to do, just give us one kiss alright?
