Critic Reviews
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Shrill, abrasive, cartoonishly over-the-top and badly titled.
-
Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle
Gooding is solid in the leading-man role. He has some of the best lines, and he's pretty much the only character you could stand to hang out with in real life.
-
Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times
Now and then there is something strangely right about films this defiantly wrongheaded, but What Love Is never rises above the leaden, overbearing qualities of Callahan's dialogue and staging.
-
Paige Wiser, Chicago Sun-Times
What Love Is overflows with mind-numbing patter, bizarrely delivered with the arch formality of David Mamet, with the net effect of being yelled at for no reason.
-
Andrea Gronvall, Chicago Reader
Romantic comedies should never be this exhausting.
