Critics Consensus

A sugary tale overstuffed with too many stories. Still, the cast charms.

A cringe 10 for the price of one bulk holiday sale of the most well-worn rom-com tropes.

Love Actually provides enough happy endings to make the audience forget that romance and Christmas miracles don't always work out.

The tagline for Love Actually is "The Ultimate Romantic Comedy." Perhaps. But not in the sense the producers intended.

Screen Rant

Love Actually is aided by its charming cast of A-list British stars and the storylines that are executed well, though the flaws are still present.

Rated: 7/10

Love Actually is for the hopeless romantics and idealists of this world, but those just looking for a warm and comfortably predictable experience should enjoy the movie too.

Rated: 4/5

The ensemble nature of Love Actually has always drawn audiences into the festivities. Of course, that also means some narratives work and others do not.

Rated: 4/10
