Something Borrowed | Ratings & Reviews

"Try as she might, Hudson can't turn Darcy into a three-dimensional character: She's astonishingly easy to dislike, but not nearly amusing enough in what could have been an unforgettable camp performance."

VarietyVariety

"The film’s too busy piling on one-liners – delivered ably by Hudson and comic co-star John Krasinski – to layer any real depth to the awkward triangle, so it’s a long slog to an inevitable climax."

Total FilmTotal Film

"The most dispiriting thing about Something Borrowed is that with a little more art, craft and wit it could have been a lot better, maybe even good."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"All of the characters are treated sincerely and played in a straightforward style. It's just that we don't love them enough."

Roger EbertRoger Ebert

"Considering her normal breezy charm, Kate Hudson has a fair stab at making party girl Darcy unlikable. Why she bothered is another matter."

Otago Daily TimesOtago Daily Times

"Despite the pretty overload and the smoldering blue-eyed handsome of Egglesfield, the heart-pounding, palm-sweating, heavy-breathing chemical reactions that should be causing major blackouts in Manhattan, where this story unfolds, are nowhere to be found."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"Doesn't so much borrow from other movies as settle into a comfort zone of raising provocative questions regarding love, commitment and marriage only to dismiss them with a brush of a hand as so much dandruff."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Yes, perhaps the audience will like its favored couple more, but all the engineering that goes into making them sympathetic results in a film that feels agonizingly synthetic and alien."
