Life Happens Ratings & Reviews
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
It's more like watching an extended sitcom than a movie.
Tampa Bay Times
Steve Persall
Conveniently coinciding with the buzz for Krysten Ritter's sitcom Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23, this fitfully amusing comedy could serve as the pilot for her next TV gig, or some other quirky Zooey Deschanel clone.
Chicago Reader
Ben Sachs
Set in Los Angeles, this unfunny comedy succeeds only in perpetuating the worst stereotypes about that city.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
The ensemble cast tries its best with generic material that offers little insight into contemporary relationships.
Common Sense Media
S. Jhoanna Robledo
Mature parenting/dating comedy lacks substance, laughs.
Times-Picayune
Mike Scott
A girls-night-out comedy that strives to be the next Bridesmaids or Sex and the City -- but that never quite captures the spark of either.
Boston Phoenix
Peter Keough
Who needs the Republicans to wage war on women when filmmakers like Coiro make supposedly hip movies that promote the same sexist attitudes?
New York Post
Sara Stewart
A likable concept that deflates into conventionality...
San Francisco Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Coiro ... mixes an off-beat premise and smart, spiky dialogue with the tired old rhythms of a standard romantic comedy.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
First-time feature director Kat Coiro gives an oft-tread story a snappy new spin in the hip and enjoyable comedy "Life Happens."
New York Times
David DeWitt
Most appealing is Kate Bosworth, whose sharp humor as Deena has a bite that dares you to dismiss her. Even if you might dismiss her film.
The Hollywood Reporter
Justin Lowe
Co-writers Coiro and Ritter fill in the schematic script with some juicy lines and amusing situations but never lock on to a consistent tone or thematic throughline.
Boston Globe
Loren King
A cliche-laden chick flick that seems conceived solely to capitalize on the success of the far more original (and generous to female friendship) "Bridesmaids."
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
[Bosworth] brings some intriguing shadows to a movie that looks, upon first glance, to be a two-dimensional, post-"Sex and the City" romantic comedy.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
L!fe Happens wants us to believe its message is one of female independence and empowerment.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
A case study in how bad movies can turn an ordinary, relatable situation into a grotesque distortion with only a passing resemblance to the way actual human beings live and interact with each other.
Observer
Rex Reed
It all sounds dreadful, like the pilot for another brainless comedy series on network TV, but it grows on you.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
A blonde-brunette buddy comedy with a charmless cast (Rachel Bilson plays the third roomie, a Christian virgin) and banter as flat as Deena's favorite no-strings imperative, "Bone and bolt."
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
A mildly amusing indie that's neither as funny nor as poignant as it wants to be.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Its smattering of femme-centric gross-out humor [melds] into its scenester single-mother storyline about as gracefully as the odd exclamation point does into its title.
