Destiny. Faith (Marisa Tomei) believes that two soul-mates can be united if they find each other. From the Ouija board, she has found the name of her missing half, and it is D-A-M-O-N B-R-A-D-L-E-Y.

She is told that "You make your own destiny,...don't wait for it to come to you", but she is looking for Damon. 14 years later, she is engaged to a dull podiatrist and plans to marry until she gets a call from one of his classmates who is on his way to Venice, Italy. The classmate is Damon Bradley. Rushing to the airport to see her soul-mate, she misses him and the plane, but decides, then and there, to go after him. So Faith and her sister-in-law Kate both board the next plane for Italy hoping to find her Damon.
Leave your thoughts about Only You.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertIt is total fantasy, light as a feather, contrary to all notions of common sense... and it takes place mostly in Venice, Rome, and the glorious Italian hillside town of Positano. What more do you want? |
| Radio TimesAlan JonesMoonstruck director Norman Jewison successfully mines the same territory with this delicious "Cinderella Italian-style" romantic comedy. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksA 'Cinderella' tale that is also a sweet and frequently funny romantic comedy with a charming cast. |
| Fantastica DailyChuck O'LearyOne of those movies that evaporates from memory the moment you leave the theater. |
| VarietyTodd McCarthyJewison knows exactly where the laugh and welling-up buttons are that will hook the audience into this middle-class fairy-tale-come-true, and has smartly cast it with engaging personalities. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesTomei was absolutely perfect. A sweeter, prettier and more innocent actress you would be hard to find. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonLike a seasoned chef redressing the same old meal, Jewison directs "Only You" with sure, comic instinct. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanMovies like Only You and its obvious model, Sleepless in Seattle, are less true romances than they are collections of romantic signifiers. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyJewison's romantic comedy is a well-made fluff, a handsome trifle that's easily watched and just as easily forgettable; a pale effort compared to Jewison's Moon Struck, and Marisa Tomei is really not a romantic lead. |
| People MagazinePeople StaffHunt plays the Eve Arden role of Tomei's wisecracking pal to perfection, making her the single best reason to see the movie. |
