(It) doesn’t reinvent the wheel... but relies on an excellent cast to create an endearing rom-com that makes the old feel new again.

(It) coasts on the charms of it leads, and offers smiles instead of laughs, comfort instead of romance.

I Want You Back might be predictable, but it’s thoroughly charming, a warm and funny romcom...

The Guardian
It’s a far better version of a romantic comedy than we’re used to streaming of late.

Hollywood Reporter
The film rarely strays from its genre’s conventions, and that’s not a complaint. Sometimes staying in one lane yields the most gratifying results.

Los Angeles Times
Slate and Day provide enough underdog charisma to make us root for their characters, if not their wrongheaded quests.

A.V. Club
A trite romantic comedy that hits all the expected notes at just the wrong pitch, creating a dull and lifeless symphony.

Variety
The film keeps us wholeheartedly engaged with well-drawn, well-performed characters, grounded shenanigans and sweet, sentimental commentary on heartache.

The New York Times
The story is mediocre and formulaic, yes, but pleasantly so. And it shows not only ladies dealing in blubbering heartbreak, but guys going through it as well.
