Reviews for Someone Like You
An original take on the quirks of relationships.
03/29/01
A warm, fuzzy picture with enough wit to satisfy most audiences in need of a laugh.
03/29/01
The movie is worth seeing for the sparkling performances of its gung-ho cast.
03/29/01
The very definition of innocuous.

Top CriticIt seemed over-slick, artificial, unpleasantly self-congratulatory -- a pseudo-Nora Ephron yarn set in the SoHo-Greenwich Village area. More damagingly, it's not very funny.

Top CriticDefinitely likeable.

Top CriticThe movie works best on a conversational level, with some inventive, tenderly conceived and clever dialogue
03/29/01
The quickening pulse is the very real performance of Ashley Judd
03/29/01
A particularly shallow dissection of single-woman blues.

Top CriticSomeone Like You could probably be charitably characterized as 'cute,' but there's such a lack of direction and energy that it could also be described as 'sleep inducing.'

Top CriticIf you're up for a light romantic-comedy, you'll have a fine time.
03/27/01
A natural feeling, relaxed film that's easy to enjoy.
03/26/01
Felt like a bunch of sketch sequences all tied together by the 'cutesy' theory and many scenes of Ashley Judd crying.
03/26/01
The plot is flimsy, the attempts at cuteness fall flat, and the dialogue is banal.
03/26/01
The filmmakers seem to be feeling their way toward a contemporary slant on romance but wind up taking refuge in old-fashioned cliches and trite plot twists.
03/26/01
Top CriticAn appealingly quirky love story.
03/22/01
Top CriticSucceeds because the chemistry is genuine.
03/21/01
Trading the much better title of its book source "Animal Husbandry" for a song title "Someone Like You" sums up the unoriginality at work in this film.
03/18/01
An enjoyable dramedy that is fairly obvious in where it is headed right from the start, but in getting there, it surprises in how moving and wise it becomes.
