Critics Consensus

Implausible coincidences and an overly convoluted structure make the movie hard to follow or believe.

Jami Bernard New York Daily News The four main characters are all odd, sad and lonely. No wonder they don't call each other on their cells to straighten things out -- they're all too depressed to dial. Rated: 1/5 Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Christy Lemire Associated Press Wicker Park is one of those maddening movies in which the characters do incredibly stupid things simply for the sake of plot contrivance, and everyone's problems would be solved if they simply picked up their cell phones. Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian A quite extraordinarily boring psychological drama of obsession, impersonation and mistaken identity. Rated: 1/5 Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Jon Fortgang Film4 Both bland and slightly daft. Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Total Film Tortuously twisting in on itself, Wicker Park keeps you guessing as it keeps its central pair apart. But it's scuppered by a plodding obviousness that's underlined by a sledgehammer soundtrack. Rated: 2/5 Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Brian Pendreigh Radio Times Convoluted though this plot may seem, at least the inventive visuals from Gangster No 1 director Paul McGuigan keep you engrossed. Rated: 3/5 Mar 18, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Elvia L It’s 2004, I don’t think people really understand it unless you lived 2004 and remember what it was like. I LOVE this movie, you can’t just watch it and pray you get it you really have to pay attention and try to understand why. Sure there are some things that make you ask WHY?! But don’t , just enjoy it. Or don’t. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Jonathan L Una película que tiene una gran historia con la buena trama y desarrollo aceptable pero la historia durante la película es aceptable y un desenlace bueno la verdad me gusto mucho en 2024 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/29/24 Full Review Iamwhoi M It's not unwatchable; but it's closer to that than enjoyable. It's just so contrived & convoluted, the story itself is dopey. It feels kind of like a Lifetime movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Dennis D I loved this movie! Different -- but I love Josh Harnett -- and Diane Kruger-- Check it out -- I think you'll like it! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review Lee F I never heard of this movie, just happened to stumble upon it while channel surfing. Wow, it was great! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Sean M Wow! Just watched this for the first time. Story has so many layers and all unfolded really well. Acting was great. And wow that ending, perfect emotion and song to go along with it. Don’t listen to the arrogant and pompous critics lol Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Read all reviews
