Critics Consensus

Its charming stars notwithstanding, the middling Meet Cute offers little to set itself apart in the ever-more-crowded "time loop romcom" subgenre.

Stephen Romei

The Australian

This is an entertaining movie with fine performances by the two stars. The post-credits out takes, which show how the date pans out on different nights, is worth waiting for...

Rated: 3.5/5

Should we actually be rooting for this romance to work, given both the deception and obsession behind it? Cuoco keeps us wondering, but the answers don’t quite satisfy.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

The real heart of the [Meet Cute], the reason to watch it, is what it says about relying on someone else to say you, the fear of the unknown, and learning how to live.

The AU Review

The pitch here should’ve been an entirely easy sell, but conflicting genre tones, characters we never entirely understand, and a “message” that feels drastically hollow result in this meet cute being anything but.

Rated: 2/5

The Upcoming

Lehmann’s film, though visually arresting, is a bit of a mess at times. However, if this romcom teaches us anything, it’s that it’s okay for things to be a mess sometimes

This movie made me feel more than I have in quite some time. It’s beautiful & even with the oft-used time-travel conceit it’s penetrating & original. The chemistry between the leads coupled with the writing feels so real it felt *recognized* at some spirit level rather than created. It should have a red tomato. F the critics.

This movie is so horrible that I went out of my way to make a review about how bad it is. I started from watching a movie on Max then was suggested this movie. I watched for 5 mins and couldn't bear anymore of Cuoco's bad acting and the main guy. I normally love Cuoco's roles but this one she could do so much more. This movie stinks, sorry to say but not sorry. Don't suggest this movie to anyone else. You can do better Cuoco.

I didn't have too many expectations based on the ratings, and I am generally not one to flock toward the romcom genre, but this movie was very well written, the characters were charming, the story was entertaining. All in all its one of the best romcoms i've seen. It gives eternal sunshine of the spotless mind vibes, and thats my all time favorite movie.

Like 50 first dates for mentally ill people. The beginning definitely feels like a bad movie, but after a while, I started to really enjoy it. And even relate to it in a really deep way that I didn't expect.

The worst of the Groundhog Day movies where things repeat ad nauseum. I was on an otherwise fantastic date, so had to sit through the film. It caused me physical pain to sit through this. Kaley Cuoco is fantastic in so many things, but not this absolute crock. Terrible writing, terrible acting, no chemistry between the main characters. The plot would be predictable if they had mediocre script writers, this film is unpredictable because it fails to live up to mediocrity.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Honestly this movie was hilarious and teaches an honest lesson that "Love/mental health is Messy, and that's okay" there were also touches of generational trauma included. I understand there were some weird plot holes but they didn't need to be explained the movie was much more fun to just have random unexplainable aspects.
