	Author	Review
United States	Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"'One Day' is a beautiful movie, but beautiful in a way that life often is, not movies"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"'One Day' turns an episodic story into an anthology of feelings and associations, many familiar, a few surprising, some embarrassing and one or two worth holding onto"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"This tear-jerking twaddle, adapted by David Nicholls from his 2009 bestseller, is nearly as bad as Anne Hathaway's British accent, which is heading for infamy (...) Rating: ½ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"In a season of movies dumb and dumber, "One Day" has style, freshness, and witty bantering dialogue (...) A letdown after "An Education," the previous film by Lone Scherfig (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Ty Burr Boston Globe	"An almost perfect example of how not to turn a book into a movie"	NEG
