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.

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

Rated: 2.5/5

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

“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.

For me, a piece of light entertainment after being winded by a flu shot felt like it was what the doctor had ordered. And it's good enough for me to recommend it.

I think this movie was trying to be something it isn't. It simply didn't serve.

I love Shakespeare and had high hopes from this movie. It's not just the anachronisms that made me hate this movie, it's the lack of...everything. Few minutes in and I found myself wanting to do something else I didn't the feel the chemistry between the main characters and the storyline is generic and was done better in other movies.
