All My Life

Critics Consensus

All My Life benefits from some real chemistry between its leads, even if it's undermined by an aggressive reliance on heartstring-tugging sentimentality.

Critic Reviews for All My Life

All Critics (41) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (24) | Rotten (17)

Somehow All My Life seems oddly lacking in stakes, which is so weird considering the story (the main symptoms of onscreen Chau's deadly but photogenic disease seem to be a little tiredness and sweatiness).

Austin Chronicle
Director Marc Meyers and screenwriter Todd Rosenberg manipulate us without restraint, but Rothe and Shum are so endearing and their characters so pleasant that you don't mind it too much.

Sloppy sentimentality.

Rothe and Shum Jr. have such nice, authentic chemistry that they should put it to good use again. Perhaps there's a jaunty rom-com out there with their names on it.

Los Angeles Times
This three-hankie weepie holds a surprising amount of heart and hope to accompany all the cathartic crying.

This will be a film with all the philosophical substance of an inspirational Facebook chain post.

It's a paint-by-number love story with a disease-of-the-week twist.

Real Life. True Love are awe inspiring through the performances of Jessica Rothe and Harry Shum. Jr. in tear jerker romance All My Life

Carla Renata
The Curvy Film Critic
This real life tearjerker means well and won't harm your cinematic palette, but the acting and overall take on a familiar story left a lot to be desired.

KSDK News (St. Louis)
All My Life isn't phenomenal, but it is effective. The film executes the romantic drama formula and does so, thanks largely to Shum Jr.'s performance.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Worth watching both story-wise and emotionally, which is the greatest achievement of all time when producing these types of romantic dramas... also the story is less sappy.

This approachable and endearing romance stockpiles the smiles to brighten all the trials and tribulations that follow.
