Critics Consensus

Rosaline covers well-trod territory, but Kaitlyn Dever's engaging performance in the title role makes this period romance easy to love.

The picture is frisky and casual; it doesn’t try to be something it’s not.

2.5/5

The anachronistic, snarky dialogue misses as often as it hits. Romeo (Allen) emerges as a cad; Juliet is reduced to a twit.

This is really charming, funny, and clever. I laughed and smiled the whole way through.

An absolute delight. The cast has great chemistry and even the secondary and tertiary characters pop. Tragic that Hulu buried this one instead of letting it go theatrical so it could be enjoyed in a crowd

“Rosaline” is a perfectly fun film, and can be sharp in execution when it wants to be. But as much as Rosaline exudes wit and rebellion at every turn, the character lacks the depth that makes a Kat Stratford live on in the cultural lexicon.

This modern adaptation of the Shakespeare classic hinges its narrative theme on satire and doesn't get too caught up in intellectualising itself.

Only a sick twisted psychotic bastard would change one of literatures greatest dramatic love stories into a comedy. Avoid at all costs.
