I Give It a Year Ratings & Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Leba Hertz
"I Give It a Year" is a smart farce that would make Hugh Grant and his fans proud.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
The big laughs compensate for the lack of a suitable emotional payoff.
Chicago Daily Herald
Dann Gire
Mazer, a Sacha Baron Cohen collaborator, directs this comedy without much snap, crackle or pop.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
In addition to some trite set pieces, writer-director Dan Mazer serves up nothing more than conspicuous cynicism masquerading as comedy.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
The tonal clash is jarring, and Mazer doesn't help matters by erring on the side of blandness.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Can a comedy be too funny for its own good?
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
It's not romantic in the slightest, and it is quite comedic on occasion, but the parts don't fit together at all.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
As pure comedy, it's a hoot.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
A smutty script and a passel of objectionable characters form an imperfect rom-com union - one that will, with any luck, fade from the mind long before its title suggests.
NPR
Ella Taylor
Whatever attachment we might form for the characters or their fates gets lost in thickets of farce and barrages of one-liners.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
It's rather close to excruciating.
New York Daily News
Jordan Hoffman
"I Give It a Year" holds a special place in film history. It's the only romantic comedy where you root for the main couple to get a divorce.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
By turns thoughtful, awkward and lacking in chemistry, the movie ultimately sticks to the rom-com template without making the outcome matter.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
This is an inspired idea for a rom-com, and Mazer makes it pay off with a climactic speech that's at once a parody of the genre and utterly, bizarrely heartfelt.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
Not just diverting but surprisingly thoughtful, even if we're never given too much reason to care about Nat and Josh.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
Much of the film's attempted laughs come from the comedy-of-discomfort school, with an endless array of situations that milk awkwardness to a degree that makes these scenes far more unpleasant than humorous to watch.
The Dissolve
Noel Murray
The default middle ground between true-to-life and wacky in I Give It A Year turns out to be a place of dreary artificiality.
Film.com
William Goss
Manages to have its wedding cake and spit on it too.
The Hollywood Reporter
Megan Lehmann
It winds up rather inelegantly shoehorning salty humor and abrasive sentiment into a genre template, but an above-average number of laugh-out-loud set-pieces compensate for the resulting wobbly narrative.
Variety
Leslie Felperin
Even if the emotional mathematics don't quite add up, enough diversion is provided by pic's broader comic setpieces to paper over the cracks.
