A-
"
The Last Kiss
is a picture about bad choices, and that's exactly why it should be celebrated."
FilmJerk.com
Brian Orndorf
C
"a distinctly white bread romantic comedy sprinkled with brief flashes of modern-day American existentialist dread."

3.5/4
"...a compelling, surprisingly moving look at the ups and downs of contemporary relationships."
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
C-
"The youthful leads all had a limited range of emotions."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
2/4
"Says little about growing up and relationships that hasn't been coveredand betterin virtually hundreds of other pictures on the same subjects."

C
"The original was full of warmth, humor and poignance while the remake is full of rain clouds and navel-gazing."
eFilmCritic.com
Eric D. Snider
3.5/4
"An American drama with European sensibilities right up to an ending which on the surface feels like a grand romantic gesture but whose triumph opens up a door of far gloomier and irrevocable consequences."
eFilmCritic.com
Erik Childress
1/4
"As if Hollywood films needed any outside help to celebrate arrested narcissism, along comes
The Last Kiss
, Tony Goldwyn's Americanization of the spurious Gabriele Muccino whinefest of the same name."
Slant Magazine
Fernando F. Croce
D
"Muccino's film was a deliciously surprising, high-spirited dance; Goldwyn's is a dreary dirge,...a sadly typical blend of morose relationship tale and second-rate sitcom."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
3/5
"Probes in a light-hearted way the problems of individuals for whom the yearning of passion spells discontent."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
3/4
"This is one of those movies where you're willing to overlook the flaws in order to appreciate what's worth lauding."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
2.5/5
"If the characters in
The Last Kiss
come across as a bit too whiny, it's not because they're too young, but rather because they're too self-inflated."
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
2/4
"Imperturbable Americans who read as juvenile clowns for their inability or unwillingness to put their emotional houses in order."
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
6/10
"Watching
The Last Kiss
feels like watching a couple going through the motions."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Jeffrey Chen
3/5
"Strong performances and interesting ideas make the film worth a gamble but it's far from the relationship classic it longs to be."
FilmFocus
Joe Utichi
5/10
"...another Hollywood fabrication about how people act and feel.... substituting theatrics for genuine emotion."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
1.5/5
"this movie is a mess of neurotic, selfish, deplorable people, and I really didn't care about any of them"
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
2.5/4
"... veterans Danner and Wilkinson effortlessly make Anna and Stephen more interesting than all the youngsters combined."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
1.5/3
"De nuevo nos encontramos ante esos personajes (y una de esas películas) que nos muestran que los ricos y acomodados también tienen una vida miserable. Ja, ja."
Off-Off-Critica
MalaBesta
"Braff is an absolutely charming screen presence, and redeems a should-be hateable character..."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
B-
"Braff creates a likeable character who makes some unlikeable choices. But none of the ultimate resolutions feel as satsifying as they are intended to, and Kim is as imaginary as the Bo Derek character in the similarly-themed "10.""
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
3/5
"Fazendo um bom trabalho de direção, Tony Goldwyn cria uma narrativa leve e sensível, demonstrando inteligência em momentos nos quais ilustra os problemas do protagonista de maneira sutil."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
3/5
"Entertaining and insightful, but the shift from comedy to melodrama is a bit drastic."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
C-
"
The Last Kiss
is the kind of film fodder best left to DVD rental, a far more economical prospect than taking it in on a Saturday night at the local multiplex."
