| GuardianAnna SmithWhile Ritchie and Karan offer up charming performances, their characters could use more depth: the romantic complications feel sudden without much psychological insight. |
| Total FilmKate StablesIts stagey mix of East Is East-style father/ son conflict and bouncy bedroom farce is endearing, though a tad stereotyped. |
| Daily Express (UK)Henry FitzherbertThe performances are strong, especially from Patel and Syal, and there are plenty of laughs. |
| The ListPaul GallagherReece Ritchie and Amara Karan are charmingly sincere and easy to root for as the young couple who know very little about sex, a rare and refreshing sight in contemporary cinema. |
