Charlotte O'Sullivan London Evening Standard Play it again, Samberg. Rated: 4/5 Apr 14, 2021 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Surface similarities to Groundhog Day are relegated to background noise, thanks to the crisp writing and the nihilistic bite of the humour. Rated: 4/5 Apr 11, 2021 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times A philosophical comedy that is not afraid to aim the odd joke below the belt or, as resolution looms, to give in to sentimentality. Rated: 4/5 Apr 10, 2021 Full Review Brandon Stanwyck InSession Film 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. Rated: B+ Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Amy Smith InSession Film This is one film I was desperate to see, and I am so glad I loved it as much as I thought I would. Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Patricia Karounos Refinery29 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.

Fer S I thought it was gonna be so cliché and bad, and it ended up being quite great! A few things did not make sense but who cares, logic is not the point of the movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Krista S This is in my Top Ten favorite movies. Love the happy backdrop of a wedding that’s just a facade hiding family drama and betrayal. Spoiler alert: More philosophical cousin of GROUNDHOG DAY with excellent soundtrack. Love the cast and award winning cinematography. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/01/24 Full Review Jackson G It's an interesting twist of the time loop story. Having multiple characters stuck in the same loop instead of just one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review David M Infinite time loop romcom set at a wedding (seriously, could you think of much worse than being stuck at the same wedding for eternity?). There's not a huge amount that's new about it, but it's easy to see why it became such a lockdown hit. It's witty, with several laugh-out-loud moments, and some good performances - especially from the excellent Cristin Milioti. We could have done with more J. K. Simmons, who shines in every scene he's in, but that's a pretty much given of every film Simmons is in. It's not revolutionary, but it's a fun, engaging watch. It perhaps lack the warm heart of the big daddy of the genre, Groundhog Day, but it's well worth the time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Dāvids E best time loop movie Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Jakob F A lively, light-on-its-feet take on the quintessential time-loop trope, this sleek, sun-soaked romance dramedy at once entertains more vapid and vulgar appetites while navigating our futile search for meaning in a world utterly devoid of it, ultimately sending the message that the only thing that gives life its purpose are new experiences and love, ideally merged into a new lover.
