"Are the characters completely believable? No. Are the feelings the characters talk and sing about pinpointed with a precision that seems to have become a Honoré trademark? Very much so."  european-films.net  Boyd van Hoeij

5/10
"I don't know that achieving this kind of sexual freedom would be worth having to live around all these exhaustingly precocious people."  AfterElton.com  Brian Juergens

3/5
"a light and playful story about sex and love but doesn't really say anything specific about either one"  Filmcritic.com  Chris Cabin

3/4
"The love affairs of the film's characters aren't merely expressions of fluid sexual desire but an acknowledgement of the interconnectedness of human life."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B-
"If cinema is a glass of water, Honore and Garrel are two tablets of Alka Seltzer. Unfortunately their carbonating effects wear off after about 45 minutes and the glass of water that is Love Songs goes tepid again."  Cinepinion  Henry Stewart

4/5
"Probably not to everyone's taste ... but the lyrical filmmaking beautifully captures the elusive complexity of love."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

B+
"[Christophe] Honore drops the brightness and joy of the form into the chilly, gray winter of Paris to explore love and loss and intimacy."  Seattle Post-Intelligencer  Sean Axmaker

"Click here to see review"  Wolf Entertainment Guide  William Wolf
