	Author	Review
United States	Courtney Howard Variety	"There simply aren’t enough modern romantic comedies that cherish the merits of female friendship in the aftermath of a romantic breakup. There are even fewer that feel like a personal, lived-in experience"	POS
United States	Karen Han The New York Times	"The hooks on which 'Someone Great' chooses to hang its emotional hats are a little clichéd, but Rodriguez, Snow and Wise have enough chemistry to pull it all off."	POS
United Kingdom	Jake Nevins The Guardian	"[It] never strays from the genre’s cliches (...) At times it plays like an uninterrupted torrent of memes and millennialisms (...) (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Stephanie Zacharek Time	"In its casual honesty, open-heartedness and occasional bawdiness (...) [it] honors the spirit of the dearly departed 'Sex and the City', even as it better reflects the diversity of the population"	POS
United States	Monica Castillo rogerebert.com	"Its core story of coping with heartbreak through friends and escapism holds true (...) The trio’s connection feels heartfelt (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya AV Club	"'Someone Great' is an instantly captivating comedy and a standout rom-com in the ways it subtly subverts some of the genre’s most common tropes."	POS
