Critics Consensus

Love at First Sight gets a lot of mileage out of its quirky narrative gimmick and the chemistry of its appealing leads; although it's undermined somewhat by a lackluster script, this is still an above-average rom-com overall.

The chemistry was great between the Haley and Ben. It was absolutely amazing from the beginning to the end. Always wanted to see a airport love story and this one turned out to be great. Definitely there one of the list of my top rom-com movies ever.

The Romcom that I judge all others against. The performances were nearly flawless.

Cried 4 times during this movie, chuckled 12 times. It was a cheesy but also very charming love story. What I found most amusing was the narrator who acted as Shakespeare's Puck throughout this film, constantly meddling with the main characters' lives

This was such a delightful, sweet, with just the right amount of anguish to provide healing tears movie and if you're a fan of rom-coms, you need to see it! So wonderful that I will be recommending it to all my friends that they'll get so sick of me 🤣

Some sweet moments, but overall I think Haley [Lu Richardson] can do more.

Its lackluster script never gives us enough reason to believe in the couple’s rightness for each other or care about how they get to the happy ending.

Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)

It’s not a great rom com. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel. But Haley Lu Richardson and Ben Hardy are charming and there’s a great supporting performance from Sally Phillips.

The Gospel Coalition

The heavy emphasis on fate or providence as an active force (literally, the third major character) makes the movie especially comforting in this moment of relational anxiety.
