	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Pretty indulgent and sometimes a bit insufferable, with some jarringly hammy, misjudged notes. But there’s a good cast doing an honest job (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Geoffrey Macnab The Independent	"Likeable and charming (...) We can guess exactly how the story will unfold but that doesn’t lessen the humour or the gentle pathos (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Kevin Maher The Times	"It’s not utterly terrible (...) Too many scenes are excruciatingly ill-conceived and the couple’s chemistry is shaky, yet the outcome is never in doubt (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		James Luxford Radio Times	"The film overall has a very sweet tone, and it's bolstered by the very natural chemistry between the two charming leads, who capture nicely what it is to be maddeningly in love (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
