No one expects movies like this one, set as it is in the largely mythological world of fiercely competitive daily newspapering, to be realistic. But neither should they be as flaccid and unconvincing as what we are presented with here. Jun 17, 2014 | Full Review…

Generic as its title, I Love Trouble is like a Xerox of a copy of a facsimile. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Again and again, the I Love Trouble script takes us deeper and deeper into the machinations of a high-tech company when what we want to see is Nolte and Roberts outfox each other. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Is there chemistry between Roberts and Nolte? Not really. This by-the-numbers production is more like math than chemistry. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

It's like the worst possible Newman-Redford vehicle: the script reduces the stars to twinkling mannequins, and their chemistry barely rises to the buddy-buddy level. Jun 17, 2014

You can tell that they like each other by the way they hate each other. Shakespeare may have invented the recipe, Tracy and Hepburn may have refined it, but Nolte and Roberts certainly hold their own. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

The lack of chemistry onscreen allows the paper-thin premise to collapse in on itself, and there's very little else left to salvage. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

There's a pervasive romanticism in I Love Trouble that depends on the chemistry generated by Roberts and Nolte. Jun 17, 2014 | Full Review…

The running badinage of Roberts and Nolte lacks the tartness and bite that made those classic couplings and the old screwballs crackle with contentious wit. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

If you can get your head round the idea of Julia Roberts as a ruthlessly ambitious newspaper reporter, then there's plenty to enjoy in this frivolous comedy thriller. Jun 17, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Mediocre romantic comedy, I Love Trouble is a film that had the potential of being much better than what it turned out to be. The film suffers from a wooden script, and in turn, the film becomes, tedious and dull to the point that you lose interest in what you're watching. I wanted the film, and felt it should really have stood out, but there weren't any good enough moment to let the film really shine through. I felt it was just a poorly constructed effort, one that didn't try to entertain, and considering what it tried to do with its story, it's surprising that the filmmakers couldn't deliver anything remotely interesting. I felt that this film was a wasted opportunity, one that should have been much better than this. As it is it, it's just not entertaining and it has plenty of clichéd fiddled moments that brings down the film a bit. This could have been quite interesting if more effort would have been put into the film's story in order to make it less formulaic. Unfortunately, it's just another rom-com that never does anything with its ideas and cast. If you're expecting something that will entertain you, you'll be disappointed as the film just doesn't have anything going for it to warrant a viewing. Like I said, if the film would have had a few rewrites, maybe its ideas could really have worked, but this is a film that is ordinary, as if it was made with the same old genre ideas to create something that doesn't do anything worth seeing.

funny and goodi love this movie there clearly was good chemistry between Nolte and Roberts making it much more watchable! the plot and storyline is good with quite a few laughs that keep you entertained its got great performances and is a really good film!
Two rival reporters have to work together to uncover a conspiracy. Good cast.
Uneven mix of suspense-thriller and romantic comedy comes up short because of the lack of real chemistry between Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte, reporters from competing Chicago newspapers who solve the mystery of a derailed train. Still, there are enough effective moments to make it watchable.
