Critics Consensus

It won't set hearts a-flutter for anyone who isn't a dedicated romantic, but audiences in the mood for love might like The Lost Husband.

Cath Clarke

Guardian

The Lost Husband is the kind of film that has "heartwarming" plastered across the promotional materials from script stage. But any actual feeling here is protected by a "keep out" sign.

Rated: 2/5

An old-fashioned but charming movie that affirms that maybe romantic dramas aren't dead after all.

Rated: 2.5/4

The Hollywood Reporter

Fish-out-of-water story, grief drama, opposites-attract rom-com, family-secrets saga and ode to country living - there are plenty of facets to The Lost Husband, and none of them feels particularly fresh or urgent.

I went trope fishing with The Lost Husband and caught a quietly charming one.

If you skip the forgettable trailer and misleading title you’ll find that “The Lost Husband” has more to offer than you might think.

The problem is the romance is barely developed and the big reveal does not pay off. It makes the entire film very bland and boring

Rated: 3/10

I really liked this movie. It told a very emotional story with great production and acting. Leslie Bibb was excellent in the lead, as were the other actors. Despite several negative reviews I'm of the opinion that this is an excellent movie and please do not hesitate to watch it.

I dont usually watch romantic movies, but i decided to check this one out. I admit I was very suprised as a man that I found it very heart warming and a very plausable movie. Two thumbs up.
