Leave your thoughts about Man Up.
| NPRAndrew LapinWith a lot of help from Bell and Pegg, the movie cheerfully suggests it's possible to stage a lighthearted romance without dropping off your brain beforehand. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfIt's definitely not Pegg's finest professional hour, but as fizzy romantic comedies go, "Man Up" has its share of surprises and enthusiasm for the material. |
| Urban CinefileLouise KellerFilled with wonderfully inventive and offbeat ideas, the dialogue and action take off like a hyperactive plane that can't wait to make its ascent |
| GQ Magazine [UK]Helen O'HaraTess Morris' smart script and Ben Palmer's assured direction largely hold the interest, making this more pleasure than ordeal -- and therefore a rarity in British romantic comedies. |
| New York PostSara StewartThis featherweight comedy from director Ben Palmer (“The Inbetweeners Movie”) is a lot more fun than many heftier, supposed rom-coms, thanks to the timing and chemistry of its leads. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonEven though you know how things will turn out, it's amusing along the way. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumJimmyOMAN UP is that rare romance fueled comedy that will ably entertain both men and women. |
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardAside from the silly title and disappointingly pat ending, even the rom-com-averse will find something to love about Man Up. |
| Sky CinemaLewis BazleyA breezy, honest, hilarious romcom with a stand-out performance from Lake Bell, Man Up's more than worthy of your date night attention. |
| Radio TimesKaren KrizanovichMan Up is heaped with wit and insight, and its smart script, sharp direction and crisp performances, all set against buzzing London streets that denizens will recognise, give it the feel of a frisky romantic version of After Hours. |
