Critiques:

"An entertainment success, a triple threat of fresh writing, inspired directing, and, yes, good acting." Melissa Levine, Dallas Observer

"In essence, British director Nigel Cole has brought a breezy arthouse sensibility to this tale of fated love." Brian Lowry, Variety

"Here's a pleasant little romantic comedy that doesn't try too hard and has the virtue of doing a few things differently." James Berardinelli, ReelViews

"Kutcher and Peet are a low-wattage pair, with little of the verbal riffing that counts as seduction in most romantic comedies, but they have real chemistry together, and A Lot Like Love happily indulges their silly, juvenile one-upmanship." Scott Tobias, The A.V. Club

"It is charming and at times disarmingly surprising." Sean Axmaker, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

VampAurora's Critique:

A really nice movie, with original storyline that I really enjoyed. Funny, romantic and moving in a way. Marvellous acting by both Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet; there is a great chemistry between them. I totally suggest this to you, a beautiful movie.
