The Greatest Hits Reviews

It's a nice story with attractive leads. A little slow but entertaining enough

| Mar 28, 2025

with two magnetic leads...in Boynton and Min, [The Greatest Hits] is such a pleasant delight, that even if it doesn’t quite nail the harmony, it’s melody is rousing enough

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 18, 2024

A run-of-the-mill romance.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 3, 2024

The Greatest Hits was almost a good movie if it could have plumbed the depths of these characters a bit more. Instead, it is a forgettable romance with one of the best soundtracks in recent memory.

| Original Score: 6/10 | May 3, 2024

Like a vinyl record that keeps skipping.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 1, 2024

Although it’s a brave move to use structural elements of Slaughterhouse Five as the foundation of a rom-com, Benson’s reach exceeds his grasp.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 25, 2024

The Greatest Hits has its moments, but is in need of a remix.

| Apr 23, 2024

Unfortunately, the film -- while serviceably acted -- lacks any sense of fun or inspiration, refusing or unable to expand on its premise in a way that would justify being a feature film rather than a ten or fifteen-minute short.

| Apr 23, 2024

...an intriguing premise that’s employed to somewhat erratic yet mostly engrossing effect...

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Apr 21, 2024

It doesn’t all work, but a likable cast and tuneful soundtrack make “The Greatest Hits” an agreeable distraction.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 19, 2024

As far as the romantic sides of this story, there’s enough working in this film’s favor to say it’s worth recommending. However, the way it imposes some of its melodrama would become tiresome if it were not for the film’s brevity.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 18, 2024

Music holds a place in life that is unlike anything else, its ability to transport people back to certain moments, places, and people is unmatchable. Taking this concept, director Ned Benson crafts a harmonious fantasy-romance of reflection.

| Apr 18, 2024

An impressive playlist of catharsis, passion and self-realization.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 18, 2024

I found it so charming and grounded as a low-fi, sci-fi rom-com.

| Apr 17, 2024

Somber depictions of grief don’t always make for great movies. Director/screenwriter Ned Benson ekes out a decent one in this sensitive romantic triangle.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 17, 2024

The Greatest Hits falls short in its attempt to deliver a compelling love story. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/10 | Apr 16, 2024

Benson’s high-concept love story might be unique, but it’s not reinventing the wheel. That’s as much a virtue as it can be a vice, as The Greatest Hits is sampling the classics whenever it can.

| Apr 16, 2024

THE GREATEST HITS is a romantic drama with such a surprising mix of elements that it’s a wonder it all holds together. It does. You just have to be willing to suspend your disbelief at its premise – it involves time travel – and then just hang on.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 15, 2024

The Greatest Hits builds to one of the most confounding betrayals of narrative and theme in recent memory, a conclusion made all the more frustrating by just how well its moving parts fit together in the meantime.

| Apr 14, 2024

Though it's stocked with plenty of appealing performers, there's very little real chemistry...the filmmakers seem more intensely romantic about the turntables and stereo speakers than they do about any of the cardboard characters created by the script.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 12, 2024
