Stuck in Love Reviews
Most consistently a drama - and one that goes on for too long.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 4, 2020
Totally forgettable and one of the blandest films of the year.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2019
Alas, why couldn't one of these fab authors have helped the first-time writer and director Josh Boone pen some decent dialogue?
| Original Score: 2/5 | May 14, 2018
This disarming romantic comedy-drama is far more likeable than the ho-hum romcom title suggests.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 5, 2017
Stuck In Love turns out to be a decent film, a few nice jokes and humourous elements, some cliched but sweet thoughts on romance, love and humanity, and very nice to look at, just a shame it's all so muddled and happy to settle for mediocrity.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 6, 2017
Highlighted by standout performances by Greg Kinnear and Lily Collins, this film has it all, some humor, some tears, and a lot of truth.
| Original Score: 9/10 | Aug 2, 2013
A little heavy-handed at times, "Stuck in Love" is saved from the maudlin pile by its stellar cast.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 20, 2013
[VIDEO ESSAY] A well blended cocktail of familial connections, aspirations, and separations, "Stuck in Love" is a complex romantic comedy that keeps on giving even when you think it has run its course.
| Original Score: A- | Jul 8, 2013
[Boone's] semiautobiographical film is a confident, at times wonderfully nuanced, and often well-paced rewrite of his own parents' divorce.

Familiar tale of indie-suburban angst.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Jul 5, 2013
Perfectly adequate airplane reading.

Cliched literary trappings come together in "Stuck in Love," but the final product feels more like a footnote than a finished work.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 4, 2013
Although "Stuck in Love" is an indie film, it hews slavishly to Hollywood formulas right down to its comfy Thanksgiving Day ending. It's all so easy, isn't it?

Just like most romantic comedies (though this is more of a "rom-dram"), Stuck In Love. believes nothing is worthier than refusing to give up after you've been rebuffed in no uncertain terms.
| Original Score: C- | Jul 4, 2013
Three writers in one family explore the different shades of love.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 3, 2013
Worthwhile for its fine performances, including the best work that Greg Kinnear and Jennifer Connelly have done in quite a while.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 3, 2013
Set in a world of resplendent beach homes and scrubbed-clean towns, populated by genetically blessed people who wouldn't know a real concern if it smacked them in the face.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 2, 2013
Writer-director Josh Boone populates Stuck in Love with smart characters breaking from emotional holding patterns of varying contours.
| Jul 2, 2013
The movie's not especially urgent or inventive, but it has small moments of grace ...
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 2, 2013
But all too soon, Boone's questionable taste level and constant, very self-conscious but none-too-deep emphasis on the what, how and why of Writers becomes oppressive and extremely precious.
