2.5/4
"Kidd excels at Nabokovian heart-to-hearts between a master and pupil of the same emotional age"
Film Freak Central
Bill Chambers
"Such moments, as movie-engineered as they seem, are enhanced considerably by Linney and Grace's completely lived-in performances."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
2.5/4
"[Topher Grace] proves that he's got what it takes to become a bona fide movie star."
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
"Laura Linney almost carries this film across the goal line."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
2.5/4
"When Marcia Gay Harden enters scree,
P.S.
turns into
Desperate Housewives
."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
B-
"“P.S.” becomes that rarity in modern cinema: a movie which remains entertaining despite its amiable blandness."
FilmJerk.com
Edward Havens
C+
"The actors elevate the material a bit, but they can't escape the fact that the movie only has vague goals set for itself."

Eric D. Snider
2.5/4
"Dylan Kidd seems to be at the expense of another writer’s published weepie rather than the sharp repartee he brought to Roger Dodger"
eFilmCritic.com
Erik Childress
C+
"An interesting misstep...the lead performances are superb, but even they can't make up for the hard-to-swallow story."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
3/5
"p.s. is a fresh romantic comedy that shows how we often sabotage ourselves when love arrives effortlessly in our arms and we don't know what to do with this blessing."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
3/4
"The result is an intriguing and satisfying romance that may hold some appeal even for those who normally do not like films about affairs of the heart."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
4/5
"Laura Linney delivers a rich, rare performance as a woman haunted by death and faced with all kinds of resurrection."
Netflix
James Rocchi
7/10
"If Kidd does enjoy presenting character studies as vehicles for lightweight self-improvement messages, at least he uses messages I can agree with."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen
"A bitterly hysterical and nearly flawless film with two lead performances that aren't likely to be topped."
Planet Sick-Boy
Jon Popick
B-
"With
Roger Dodger
, Kidd knew that his strength was in creating two compelling characters, so he left everyone else in the background. This time he's stretching, and it shows."
Valley Scene Magazine
Larry Carroll
2/5
"For a good hour the film breezes along on the promise that there will be a moment when everything coalesces and its point becomes clear. But the moment never comes."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
"Laura Linney is one of those actors at whose feet I just want to drop and grovel: she’s so smart and expressive and
real.
"
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
3/4
"In his most demanding screen role to date, Grace is simply terrific as J. Scott, whose flippant exterior masks a sensitive and surprisingly mature soul."
Reel.com
Timothy Knight
2.5/4
"Provides a sort of middlebrow mainstream rom-com conventions-satisfied satisfaction."
Film Freak Central
