Joe Leydon Variety 02/17/2015
The leading man often seems more like a brooding menace in this handsomely produced but painfully slow faith-based romantic drama. Go to Full Review Glenn Kenny RogerEbert.com 02/13/2015
2.5/4
It's incredibly rare to see an American movie with a Christian perspective that's more invested in philosophizing and empathizing than in eschatological pandering, and for that alone "Old Fashioned" deserves commendation. Go to Full Review Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times 02/12/2015
Disturbing is the film's apparent conviction that the surefire way to a woman's heart involves lots of candles and a mani-pedi, the sort of notion that isn't so much cute and old-fashioned as it is acutely offensive. Go to Full Review Daniel Barnes Dare Daniel 09/28/2021
1/5
Director-writer-producer Swartzwelder stars as Clay, an intensely unlikeable, old-fashioned old fascist with serious serial killer vibes. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/18/2020
1.5/4.0
Awkwardly written with paper-thin caricatures serving as characters and amateurish production values. Go to Full Review Abby Olcese Sojourners 06/23/2017
Old Fashioned's male writer, director and star seems to think his vision is what women want, but his attempt at squeaky-clean alternative isn't just boring, it's flat-out undesirable. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

babarizam D Jun 1 I liked the one line in this movie "our job is not the looking, it's the becoming. Once you are the right person, once you are ready" However, movie theme is quite traditional because of male character's exposure to the world. His contribution was almost none to the relationship except that she was in love with him. He is also a bad actor. See more Anyla S 08/20/2024 I loved this movie it was genuinely so romantic and all of the cinematic shots went a long with the story line perfectly. The story development along with the character development was excellent. Best romance movie would highly recommend See more 06/06/2021 Not the greatest acting, but there were tears streaming down my face as I watched this film. There is redemption, forgiveness and love when the Lord is in their midst. See more 04/25/2020 Watched The Cinema Snobs Review of This Film and it made me feel like blowing my brains out just hearing him talk about it. This movie is cancer, yes. It's Shit with a capitol S. See more 10/15/2019 One of the best romantic movies I have ever seen! We loved it!! Great theme of redemption and new beginnings woven in. See more 04/08/2019 A wonderful story at many different layers. The story itself is cute, but the underling story line and editing is wonderful! See more Read all reviews
