Reviews & comments
Variety
pressIn its overwrought moments, Miss You Already forfeits any claims to credibility.
The Guardian
pressCollette is a potent, unsentimental presence and Hardwicke and Banks know how to connect with the audience.
Sydney Morning Herald
pressVivid, occasionally funny, but not as funny as it thinks; heartbreaking and gut-wrenching; too self-aware and hipster by half; and true enough when it matters to be disturbing and confronting.
Hollywood Reporter
pressFilms about female friendship, that pass the Bechtdel test with such flying colors, are all too rare as it is. So it makes it even more of a pity to see this one, with its potential to be a Beaches for the selfie generation, fail to stick the landing.

pressIt's a flawed but touching tribute to female friendship and the fierce love that can exist between women -- and that's a rare thing on screen.
Empire Magazine
pressIt has good moments, and it doesn't leave its male characters completely hanging, but the central friendship fails to convince.
This is a pretty sad movie, I didn't cry, but the other cinema goers when I went were breaking down. It's a beautiful story, and can be relate able to females, or males I suppose, who have a really best friend that no matter what life throws your friendships way, whether it be relationships, schools, interests, jobs etc, that you will still always find...
I would say this film is a chick flick , very sad but did not affect me the way the film My sisters keeper did, I could not keep a dry eye in that film , but Missing you already with great stars Toni collette and Drew Barrymore was a bit depressing I laughed in a few scenes but most of it was real sad and depressing.
