Critics Consensus

Undeniably slight and fluffy, Love Is All You Need is redeemed by its picturesque setting and warm performances by Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm.

A romantic comedy that isn't romantic or comic or much of anything.

4/5

[Susanne] Bier's intelligent direction, smart screenplay and canny casting make it a cut above your average middle-aged wish-fulfilment romance.

Buffeted by languorous Italian vistas and the emotional depth of the characters, the film falls more into the Nancy Meyers camp of rom com, in which relatable late-in-life romances are played out against sumptuous settings.

You can probably figure out where this film goes from there, but the journey is filled with such charm and the two have such wonderful chemistry I think you’ll enjoy it anyways.

4/5

Love Is All You Need is a different strand of romantic comedy that has been missing for some time; sweet, heartwarming and utterly dysfunctional.

Don't go into Love Is All You Need expecting to be surprised or provoked. Go into it to experience the gifts of its lovely leading lady.

An amusing, gentle and warm love story with beautiful scenery, much better than the usual romcom. I really wanted everything to turn out right in the end!
