Leave your thoughts about How He Fell in Love.
| indieWireSteve GreeneRegardless of who it sets its sights on, How He Fell in Love tells a complete tale without being tidy, fitting for a tale representative of love’s fickleness. |
| New York TimesHelen T. VerongosWe bend over backward to find joy in this movie, but, like eager yogis striving to achieve an impossible asana, we just can’t do it. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreHow He Fell in Love isn’t dazzling, warm and fuzzy. For all the damage being done, there’s not a lot of harsh edge to it, either. But it feels real. |
| Globe and MailBarry HertzAlthough its two lead actors are strong – and Meyers affords them a generous number of scenes where they can bare raw emotion – the film stumbles toward the end, and the central duo don’t develop all that much. |
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardMore sort-of character study than passionate exploration of an affair, How He Fell in Love is a rather one-sided relationship. |
| RogerEbert.comAngelica Jade BastiénThe acting starts off capable even if it reflects the same lifelessness of the film itself, but as the story continues the performances only magnify script issues that become unbearable. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairA well-intentioned yet thoroughly tedious misfire... |
| National PostAlexander HulsMoments in the script - a first kiss or flowering of guilt - occur so abruptly, it's as if emotional context was never considered. |
| User ReviewJenny LGood weekend date movie. Amy Hargreaves delivers an especially poignant performance, and the rest of the cast is equally authentic. Not your average romance drama - highly recommend! |
| User ReviewAnthony DMan meets attractive woman who is married and they start an affair has been done before but this one seems more authentic. Characters are not only relateable but likeable. Matt McGorry and Amy Hargreaves are terrific together. Really enjoyed the closure both characters felt at the end and how the affair brought them closer to themselves. Nice unconventional yet happy ending. |
