Reception

[edit]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 17% based on 6 reviews, with an average rating of 3.30/10.[1]

Simran Hans of The Observer gave the film 1/5 stars, writing: "Unfortunately, even Chancellor, so brilliant and sharp as Lix Storm in BBC2's newsroom drama The Hour, can't save this undignified affair, gritting her teeth through writer-director Carr-Wiggin's cringeworthy script."[2] Kevin Maher of The Times also gave the film 1/5 stars, calling it "a baffling, breathtakingly inept rom-com that plays like a horrifying cross-fertilisation of Richard Curtis comedies with Robin Askwith sex films."[3] Mike McCahill of The Guardian gave the film 2/5 stars, writing: "The actors strive to give it spark and emotional amplitude, but the script barely seems to understand how humans exist hour-by-hour, let alone in moments of mortal crisis."[4]
