Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail The only thing jacked here is the hour and a half wasted watching this film. Rated: 1/4 Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Radheyan Simonpillai NOW Toronto The chemistry is never there between Anderson and West, probably because the latter is stuck trying to make sense of a character written to repel sensible people and decisions. West makes a valiant effort. Rated: 2/5 Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Carla Renata The Curvy Film Critic Love Jacked is a wonderful showcase for Shamier Anderson as Malcolm. I haven't seen star power and chemistry like this on-screen since Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams in Lady Sings The Blues. Rated: 5/10 Feb 6, 2019 Full Review Chris Knight National Post It's pretty, but lacking in personality. And that's not enough to build even a forced relationship with an audience. Rated: 1.5/5 Dec 8, 2018 Full Review Ken Eisner Georgia Straight It reinforces social tropes we could easily live without. Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said A romcom trifle that's asks nothing and gives less. Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Tracy D I really loved this romcom!! It's a cute love story with classic twist and turns! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I had to stop watching. Please can we stop homogenizing 'Africa'. It is a wonderfully diverse continent with 54 counties. That was clearly Cape Town but the accents and no other details matched the location. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This was an original storyline that thought was creative and unique. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/04/21 Full Review Audience Member Nonostante la buona alchimia tra i vari personaggi, quello che prevale sono gli infiniti clichè che riempiono la sceneggiatura e lo sviluppo della trama. Peccato perchè si poteva fare meglio. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Cute movie. I clicked on it not knowing at all who was in it so as the movie progressed, I was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of some of the actors. This is a feel-good, light-hearted romance. Had some funny moments but for me it just passed the time. Pretty basic storyline, nothing out of the ordinary or unique. Again, cute movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A heartwarming and funny rom com! It's a hilarious and awkward Coming to America meets a forced engagement story. If you're looking for a nice warm movie this is a perfect antidote to a bad day. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
