Are We Officially Dating? | Ratings & Reviews

"After a night of vigorous coitus, Imogen Poots’ Ellie giggles resentment for not having made Zac Efron’s Jason wait longer for sex. He replies with “I was going to make you wait too. But then I realised, I’m a dude.” With that, we get a solid idea on the film’s perspective on modern masculinity, with characters not above lying and manipulation in order to “punch a card”. That quality makes them ideally suited to committing to stay single alongside a pal who’s suddenly split from his wife."

"The pic falls well short of its efforts to combine the raucous vulgarity of the “Hangover” movies with Cameron Crowe-ish depth of feeling."

VarietyVariety

"Gormican’s script is the film’s big strength; the dialogue fizzes while the set-pieces pay off handsomely"

Total FilmTotal Film

"The actors – who seem to have been involved in a hideous industrial accident that’s left them with the superpower of repelling all comic timing – are spectacularly unfunny."

Time OutTime Out

"A vile, witless sex comedy."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"In the main, it's the usual story – much more rom than com."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"First-time writer-director Tom Gormican fills his script with jabs at romantic convention, but his story doesn’t attempt to subvert those conventions in any meaningful way."

The DissolveThe Dissolve

"In smaller, sharper doses, the frenetic testosterone shtick of these baby-faced blusterers might have worked better."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"It’s predictable and troubled by continuity errors, but as undemanding romantic comedies go, it’s a pleasant enough watch with a heartfelt script from debut writer-director Tom Gormican."
