Long Weekend Reviews
It's actually more annoying than it is charming.
| Mar 22, 2021
Finn Wittrock and Zoe Chao have really good chemistry and the writing is strong enough that you believe in the affection these two people have for each other.

Long Weekend had all the tools to make a wistful, escapist romance that explores and overcomes some of the stigmas of mental health, but it flatlines.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 18, 2021
The Wittrock-Chao matchup is a powder keg, but a problematic screenplay pulls this movie down with it. It also treats mental illness as a gimmick.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 18, 2021
Nearly derailed by lovey-dovey irksomeness, but it's rescued by a clever twist.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 12, 2021
Wittrock and Chao have a winning natural chemistry that makes you believe, even as questions abound and overwhelm the thinking side of your brain.
| Original Score: B | Mar 12, 2021
Basilone's acknowledgement of the archetype is a sort of self-assigned "get out of jail free" card, though he then proceeds apace, writing one of the more baffling Manic Pixie Dream Girl stories of all time in "Long Weekend."
| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 11, 2021
The picture's earnest optimism might stick around for a long time, or at least longer than expected.
| Mar 11, 2021
"Long Weekend" is so narrowly enchanted by the idea of meeting someone who might save your life that it only bothers to explore it in the most literal terms.
| Original Score: C | Mar 11, 2021
A moving reminder of the simple joys of making a meaningful emotional and physical connection with another human being.
| Mar 11, 2021
A nice little gem of escapist entertainment that keeps us guessing until the very end, which is corny as all get-out and maybe I even got something in my eye.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 11, 2021
