It's way more fun rooting for Rebel than it is pretending to care whether Katherine Heigl will get the guy.

The New York Times
"Isn't It Romantic" is designed to leave viewers feeling lightheaded and forgetful. That dizzy sensation could be love - or a mild head injury.

The Guardian
Wilson is a mostly engaging lead and while she's not a natural with some of the later stage sentiment, her offhand line delivery elevates a number of throwaway jabs and she's well-suited to physical comedy.

Rolling Stone
Comic tornado Rebel Wilson lifts up this meta-take on romantic comedies and makes it your best bet for a Valentine's date at the movies. Too bad about the sucker punch of a happy ending.

Los Angeles Times
"Isn't It Romantic" walks the line between subversive and sendup. It gleefully makes fun of the well-known tropes of romantic comedies, while also satisfying our desire to delight in said tropes.

Despite all that's disappointingly familiar about Natalie's fairy tale, there's a real person at its centre.
