Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter [It's] omewhat redeemed by an endearing turn from Belgian-born star Emilie Dequenne, who brings something extra to a film that seems to be deliberately playing with Gallic rom-com stereotypes, yet has a hard time going beyond them. Mar 11, 2015 Full Review A.A. Dowd AV Club Not My Type is a modest triumph, but a triumph nonetheless. Rated: B+ Sep 11, 2014 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Above its faults rises yet another distressing and noteworthy performance from Emilie Dequenne. Rated: 3/5 Aug 30, 2019 Full Review Michael D. Reid Victoria Times Colonist (B.C., Canada) There's an underlying humanity to this film that makes it irresistible. Rated: 3/5 Mar 11, 2015 Full Review Kent Turner Film-Forward.com [Dequenne] gives the film its oomph. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 7, 2015 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...one of the best romances to come around in ages. Rated: 3.5/4 Oct 13, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Che i film potessero far piangere, ridere, ridere e piangere, riflettere, angosciare, divertire, crescere lo sapevamo tutti. Che un film potesse suscitare le stesse emozioni di Parma Cesena 1 a 2 del 25 Gennaio 2015 l'ho scoperto stasera. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member suprising, pristine acting by Émilie Dequenne. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Horrible. Boring actors, boring script, and awful end Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Fin abrute. Mais romantisme intelligent et différent. Un peu à la surface parfois tout de même intéressant dans ce genre de film d'avoir un philosophe qui cite du Kant comme personnage principal. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Dans le genre ultra mauvais difficile de faire pire, jeu d'acteurs improbables, scenario ridicule, pas credible pour deux sous, dialogues a la limite du supportable, décors hideux, clichés permanents atroces, et bien entendu, une fin ultra mauvaise et comletement deplacee Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Too heavy for a comedy, too light for a drama. Although it doesn't have Frenchies' common strong La Nouvelle Vague smell, still looking flat & plain. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
