United States | The Hollywood Reporter | "Crossing the life-death divide, Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo are a winning pair in this smart and tender comedy." | POS |
United States | Los Angeles Times | "There are moments when it is possible, with effort, to forget the plot and its tired premise and enjoy Witherspoon and Ruffalo's chemistry and imagine they are in another movie. But never for long." | NEU |
United States | Entertainment Weekly | "That Just Like Heaven succeeds at all - at least for teenage girls with limited interest in the drafting of living wills - is due entirely to Witherspoon's can-do charisma." | POS |
United Kingdom | Empire | "A sweet but predictable chick flick" | NEU |
United States | SFGATE | "The last half is so superior to the first that you wish they'd rethought the whole thing and devised a way to make it more of a one piece" | NEU |
United States | Variety | "As uneven as the topography of its San Francisco locales, but the amiable peaks mostly offset the flat stretches and valleys" | POS |
United States | Chicago Tribune | "A huge waste of talent (Witherspoon's) and time (ours)" | NEG |
