Critics Consensus

It's lifted by affable performances from its impeccable cast, and it's often charming -- but Morning Glory is also inconsistent and derivative.

C-

Morning Glory is a lackluster knockoff to Devil Wears Prada, minus the heart, cleverness and fashion. It's just not a good time, as it claims to be.

Harrison Ford gives an under-par performance in this disappointing TV-studio-set romantic comedy.

Morning Glory may not be quite glorious and is unashamedly fluff but it is quality fluff and anything that leaves you with as big a smile on your face as this film can’t be bad.

3/5

With a great cast (and Harrison Ford having his most fun in years) Morning Glory may be a conventional, sugar-coated Hollywood rom-com, but it’s never less than thoroughly enjoyable.

But as Morning Glory quickly proves, maybe there's nothing wrong with a bit of good, old-fashioned fluff in your cinematic diet. Especially if the fluff in question is as well-handled, entertaining and flat-out joyful as it is here.

This was a good film with plenty of humor and a great cast. I've always liked Harrison Ford since Star wars but Rachel McAdams was so adorable in this. Even Jeff Goldblum, who was great in the Jurassic Park films but so annoying in recent commercials, was excellent in this. It's definitely worth the watch.

One of those movies that left you smiling at the end. One of those movies that you wished you fell in love with someone like Becky Fuller, who fits your kind of person. One of those movies that makes you believe that if you can dream it, you can become it. One of those movies that you wished all work places are like day break It is a great movie, loved it.

Is loveable Rachel McAdams reason enough to watch this movie? Absolutely. Harrison Ford is comically dour, which is an unexpected plus. It's derivative, but who cares? Enjoy the acting and the story.

Don't know what is wrong with the critics or audience. A fun romp with a strong cast and Rachel McAdams is as gorgeous as ever.

Better than I expected. Laughed out loud. Thought it was going to be a predictable love story. Turns out, I was surprised. It’s more about letting go of norms and loosening up. Very cute. Harrison Ford was in a totally unexpected role for him
