	Author	Review
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"What could have been strained farce or, worse, geezer porn, morphs instead into a film of hilarious and heartfelt pleasures (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune	"Sometimes a serviceable story is elevated by a masterstroke of casting. In "Hope Springs," it's two masterstrokes (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"An awkward cross between a domestic comedy and a marital tragedy that's laced with laughs, soggy with tears and burdened by a booming, blunt soundtrack that amplifies every narrative beat"	NEG
United States	Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune	"It's gratifying to see a movie that doesn't have anything to do with superheroics or the end of the world, merely ordinary heroics of the human heart (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Ann Hornaday The Washington Post	"A minor miracle of a movie (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
