I Love You, Man Reviews
I Love You, Man administers a welcomed sense of authenticity that will keep you reflecting on its appeal long after leaving the theater.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 2, 2023
The plot offers virtually no surprises, and its formulaic approach to a fairly unique perspective on the awkward humor of male bonding doesn't help the film's impact.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 28, 2020
A feel-good flick that both men and women will enjoy.
| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020
Does nothing more than bank on its audiences' inherent homophobia.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 6, 2019
Though the jokes can be hit-or-miss, the film does blunder along in a genial enough fashion, largely thanks to co-star Jason Segel.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 5, 2018
A fun comedy for adults. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 20, 2018
For our era, Rudd is a perfect everyman. I enjoyed Segel's antics, but liked Rashida Jones even more. A few leading roles and she would be the Doris Day of a new age.

Rudd and Segal's onscreen chemistry is palpable, and combined with some fantastic bit-players, the film delivers easy, if somewhat puerile laughs.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 22, 2016
That movies from this brand will have "heart" is now a given, but the variety Rudd provides here is singular.

[T]his unpretentious crowd-pleaser is still punchy enough to send packed theaters reeling in riotous laughter.
| Oct 20, 2014
One of the better recent 'buddy comedies' and one if you're in the mood to laugh, you definitely won't regret showing a little love.
| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Mar 20, 2013
Rudd and Segel share genuine chemistry and the early scenes in which their bromance blossoms are tinged with recognisable humour; the dumb nicknames; the inexplicable use of silly voices; the embarrassingly out-dated 'man slang'.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 29, 2012
If Rudd steals the show, Segel deserves props for downplaying Sydney's regressiveness.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 9, 2012
It's hard not to like this witty, well-made celebration of friendship in which two very different guys come to know and appreciate each other.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 29, 2011
For both men though, it's the sincerity lurking just beneath the bravado which sets the film apart from the abrasive comedy it might have been.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 14, 2011
At the end of the day it is a pretty formulaic bromantic comedy, and the little bit of a twist it has can't hide that fact. But it's done really, really well and that counts for a lot.
| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Mar 27, 2011
The film is a microcosm of us all, guys - raucous, juvenile and puerile on the outside, but tender, sweet and vulnerable in our hearts.
| Mar 9, 2011
Pays respect to the crucial role male bonding plays in adulthood...
| Jan 4, 2011
We all know where the film is heading, but that's hardly the point. Rudd and Segel are such entertaining guides you're willing to follow them anywhere.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 27, 2010
Thanks to the incredible chemistry of its two leads, I Love You, Man stands as one of the best buddy comedies since Swingers.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 6, 2010
