B
"10 Items or Less doesn't insist much more than the average indie exercise, but it's nicely made by Silberling, and if you've lost faith in Morgan Freeman, this is the film to restore it."  eFilmCritic.com  Brian Orndorf

3/5
"filled with tiny moments that are instantly amusing, then immediately forgotten when the movie's over."  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

"He and Scarlet, in another movie, might have found a way to spin their one day's worth of intimacy into something more movie-like, but here, they keep it contained."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

4/5
"This is a dazzling piece of character study, set to a breezy, charming tone."  DVDTalk.com  David Cornelius

3/4
"...thoroughly satisfying..."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

C+
"Will go down as tasty as a fast-food guacamole."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

3/4
"A charmer in the truest sense of the term by getting to watch Freeman break out and have a lot of fun alongside one of the most beautiful and exciting actresses hopefully starting to get her due in America."  eFilmCritic.com  Erik Childress

5/5
"A light-hearted and feel-good independent film about two strangers who connect in a way that surprises both of them and enriches their lives: it's one of the best films of the year."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

3/4
"Ten Items or Less is not landmark cinema nor is it deeply thought-provoking, but it's smart, funny, knowledgeable about life and people, and a crowd-pleaser."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

"Though in some ways its plot is never entirely convincing, it is, on its own limited terms, nearly perfect."  Pajiba  Jeremy C. Fox

1.5/4
"10 Items or Less is a hybrid of Nacho Libre and Spanglish directed by Moonlight Mile's Brad Silberling, and yes, it's as unbearably cloying and uplifting as that description sounds."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

5/5
"...worth discovering, and it can be discovered by each person who watches it, no matter how many reviews are read, no matter how many friends see it and recommend it. It's just that kind of movie."  Film Threat  Rory L. Aronsky

"The bare-boned simplicity of 10 Items or Less is more a strength than a liability."  Salon.com  Stephanie Zacharek
