Critics Consensus

With Lindsay Lohan in the lead, it almost doesn't matter that Irish Wish is a scattered collection of rom-com clichés.

I really thought this was super charming.

You've got a very charming Lohan, some lovely Irish scenery, and a Hallmark plot. And if that's what you're here for, you'll get it.

A bargain-basement romcom that does its star no favors.

Rated: 1.5/4

The People's Movies

Irish Wish could have been a great fantasy romantic comedic if only it had had better storytelling, structure, or dialogues. Instead, it is just mostly mediocre and rather disappointing

Rated: 2.5/5

Film Ireland Magazine

Irish Wish hits all the marks and easy reward receptors and is as soothing and surprise-free as spuds and gravy.

Destined to become a rainy hungover Sunday go-to for those who desire a brain-off love buzz. And that is all.

What a waste of everyone's time and resources. Lohan deserves a comeback but this isn't it. Her character is literally the least interesting lead I've ever seen and I can't buy her as an actual human being at all. The wardrobe alone, yuck. Sometimes I like cringey movies but this was waaaaay over done. There's an old made for TV movie called the magical land of the leprechauns that is 10 times better than this.

A very corny romance movie by a lazy script writer to a simple formula. They should go back to writing morning TV soap opera. Lindsay Lohan very uninspiring.

This is about as light and predictable a rom-com as you can get! There were certainly no surprises but the Irish countryside was breathtaking and pub experience was fun.

The film is supposed to be hallmark-esk. Lindsay Lohan’s performance in this shows just how charming she is on-screen and why she should be in more A-list projects. She is getting her face back out there to show that she’s still got it! The film is cute. Not very well written and the acting is a little off, but if you are looking for a cute rom-com to watch on a rainy day, this is the one for you.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
