Lisa Rosman Time Out Maybe it's this soapy saga's cocktail of the worst of both the Lifetime network and self-consciously quirky indie cinema, but the strong supporting cast (including Jenkins and Blythe Danner) looks downright queasy in every frame. Rated: 1/5 Sep 13, 2016 Full Review Bill Goodykoontz Arizona Republic "Waiting for Forever" evidently is an attempt to portray love as purest when expressed by those who are most innocent, untainted by the ugliness of the real world. But it misses the mark completely, coming off instead as creepy. Rated: 1.5/5 Feb 16, 2011 Full Review Kyle Smith New York Post A drippy romance that makes Nicholas Sparks look like Leo Tolstoy. Rated: 1/4 Feb 4, 2011 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures It's not a love story. It's a stalker story. Rated: 1/5 Oct 2, 2013 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Oppressively quirky from start to finish... Rated: 1/4 Jun 17, 2011 Full Review Andy Klein Christian Science Monitor A suggestion to screenwriters: Stop telling stalkers that their passion isn't misplaced and that the girl will come around in the end. It is, and she won't. Rated: D Feb 4, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Martin O I think Bilson's acting did not capture the message of the director trying to let leave a little hope to Will to base his insistence to her, and not leave him as a simple stalker Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/21/25 Full Review Maryanne M This sweet and romantic movie has a lot to recommend it. The stars have wonderful chemistry and it's an emotional story that a lot of sentimental people will relate to. Tom Sturridge's performance feels very honest and you fall in love with his character and you are rooting for his dream to come true. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/03/24 Full Review Kausar S This film will be a masterpiece written by Steve Adams. James Keach and his team of producers did an excellent film, and it is admired by hundreds of thousands across the globe. If they screen it now, in 2023, it will become an amazing blockbuster... This was an amazing film! I loved watching it as a teenager, and it has loads of beautiful acting! Amazing! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/03/23 Full Review Steve D It has no idea what it wants to be. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/14/23 Full Review Victoria G this is a movie from my emo phase and i think im really into love movies, so i reaaaally liked, if the target was emo teenagers falling in love hehe Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/07/22 Full Review Audience Member best romantic movie i ever seen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
