4/5
Surface similarities to Groundhog Day are relegated to background noise, thanks to the crisp writing and the nihilistic bite of the humour. Go to Full Review
Donald Clarke Irish Times 04/10/2021
4/5
A philosophical comedy that is not afraid to aim the odd joke below the belt or, as resolution looms, to give in to sentimentality. Go to Full Review

There's certainly a hidden gravity to the film, a low-key melancholy. But nonetheless Palm Spring is absolutely a comedy, albeit a dark one—ironically set in sunny paradise. Go to Full Review

This is one film I was desperate to see, and I am so glad I loved it as much as I thought I would. Go to Full Review

Instead the conceit is elevated, thanks to updated material and two stars who can effortlessly go from irreverent to goofy to swoon-worthy in the same scene. Go to Full Review

Lincoln S. @lincolnastley Nov 10 One of my all time favorites See more Tricia K Oct 19 The performances of Samberg and Simmons were strong, but Milioti's was often forced, overacted and contrived, and the camera came off of as trying very hard to love her with many close-ups, but just as her performance, this was similarly forced. The best I could say about the chemistry between the romantic leads is that they make good siblings. The goofy explanations for the time loop, and the eventual remedy, came off as pretentious, vague and unlikely. It seemed as though it stemmed from a mind on a lot of caffeine and adderall, which ultimately rendered this comedy as a flash in the pan in my opinion. But hey, I'm just an anonymous audience member who is agog this flick won any awards whatsoever, because I was only intermittently mildly amused with the comedic capers yet consistently annoyed with all the over-acting, particular from the ensemble who paled in comparison to the leads. This was made pre-pandemic, and only over 21 days, so for that it gained an extra half star. See more Justin B Sep 20 A modern version of groundhogs Day. The rich man's version of that story. See more Koen H Sep 10 Ohhhh, such a lovely time loop movie !! Just pushes all the right buttons for me :) See more Julian S. @akajulianscott Sep 10 There are laughs, sure, but let’s not pretend it even grazes GROUNDHOG DAY’s shadow.
