    Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph Segel and Stoller could - no, should have been bolder: their leading lady deserves it. Full review External link
  2. Positive review
    Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK] It brings a light touch to modern romance, and the fact that commitment phobia, so long a male prerogative, is now being claimed by women. Full review External link
  3. Positive review
    Simon Braund, Empire Magazine Another solid hit from Planet Apatow - charming, funny and remarkably in tune with real life. Full review External link
  4. Negative review
    Tom Huddleston, Time Out This is a watchable but rather drab romcom which relies too often on Apatow-school clich. Full review External link
  5. Positive review
    Simon Miraudo, Quickflix The Five-Year Engagement is perfect for anyone who liked Blue Valentine, but felt it was a little light on the yuks. Full review External link
  6. Positive review
    Richard Brody, New Yorker An exemplary modern romantic comedy, personal and symbolic, goofy and substantial, tightly imagined yet loosely strung, wise in bewilderment. Full review External link
