Simran Hans

Observer (UK)

I'm not one to bat away an attempt to revive a genre that was once a stalwart of the British film industry, but ultimately, the stakes of their relationship are too low to create any real dramatic fizz.

Rated: 2/5

Geoffrey Macnab

Independent (UK)

We can guess exactly how the story will unfold but that doesn't lessen the humour or the gentle pathos.

Rated: 4/5

Kevin Maher

The Times (UK)

Too many scenes are excruciatingly ill-conceived and the couple's chemistry is shaky, yet the outcome is never in doubt.

Rated: 2/5

Edward Porter

Sunday Times (UK)

At the heart of this film by Emily Harris and Ate de Jong is a credible, intimate portrait of two people deeply in love but unsure where they're going.

Rated: 3/5

MaryAnn Johanson

Flick Filosopher

This would-be modern Romeo-and-Juliet tale is little more than a pile-on of class stereotypes, contrived dialogue, and one whopper of a coincidence.
