What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lindsay Lohan and Ian Harding try their best to elevate a tired script, but Our Little Secret is too clumsy for its screwball antics to land.

Brooks Eisenbise Chicago Reader Under the shiny Netflix-feature-film-budget gift wrapping, you won’t find much in Our Little Secret to feel grateful for. Dec 11, 2024 Full Review John Nugent Empire Magazine A typically formulaic seasonal sugar rush that’s only blandly mediocre, rather than so-bad-it’s-good. But Lindsay Lohan’s romcom-dominance cannot be denied.   Rated: 2/5 Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday It inspires no emotional investment, it has no interesting characters, offers zero chemistry between the stars and not the slightest bit of a reason to be anything but bored. Rated: 1/4 Dec 4, 2024 Full Review Juanma Fernández París El Nuevo Día (Puerto Rico) There are multiple opportunities to turn everyone on screen into a caricature, but [the]...direction and [the] script fight this off, relying entirely on the comedic chops and natural charisma of its lead actress. [Full review in Spanish] Jan 15, 2025 Full Review Lindsay Pugh Woman in Revolt Yet another terrible holiday Netflix movie, this time with the creepy teacher from "Pretty Little Liars." Dec 27, 2024 Full Review Steve Murray ArtsATL It’s not the screwiest of screwball comedy complications. Instead it’s lame, tame and dated. Dec 23, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Netflix Christmas films are Lohan’s new niche. One of the many Christmas movies produced by Netflix, “Our Little Secret” generated buzz during the 2024 holiday season by delivering exactly what the public wants from a casual Christmas film: some laughs and some heart in a predictable, yet entertaining package. Lindsay Lohan is learning the art of being charming even in simple, seasonal films from Christmas movie veteran and co-star, Kristin Chenoweth. This film has plenty of plot holes and overused tropes, but it’s palatably enjoyable for the diverse audiences that gather for the holidays. Lohan is going to be cashing checks every December like Mariah! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Andreas R Boring, boring, boring. Two previously involved couple are reunited at Christmas ten years later with their new significant others, who just happen to be siblings and have a faintly sinister mother. Stuck under the same roof, the old flame rekindles, which is clearly to be expected. While the plot might be foolproof, the presentation was not really funny where it was supposed to be and I found myself laughing at things that were not really funny. I suppose it was schadenfreude. It wasn’t worth watching. The acting wasn’t up to par and I found myself wondering why Lohan would lend herself to such a tawdry spectacle. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Madhuri S Lazy movie...made to simply catch the Christmas crowd. Predictable plot, hohum dialogues, terrible acting by all, even worse direction. Was anyone even doing their job? Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Juju S D'accord le plot est prévisible et le scénario pas incroyable, mais ça reste un bon film de Noël comme on lest aime avec une belle complicité entre Lindsay Lohan et Ian Harding. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Len P Lindsay Lohan seems too old to play the part in the 1st act (a 20 something career girl) and perhaps even a bit old to play the “10 years later” character. The lead male actor, Ian Harding, although the same age as Lindsay looks somewhat younger. Reasonable acting. Plot acceptable. The credits don’t say who the principle directors or producers were. Why ? Somebody close to Lindsay ? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/13/25 Full Review Tatiana H This movie was cute. I really enjoy seeing Lindsay Lohan back on the big screener and making a full recovery. I think the plot is pretty typical but the movie itself still remained pretty interesting. I would recommend this movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
