Its a David Mamet play with Nancy Meyers lighting

It’s a bad sign when you’re paying more attention to the continuity than the dialogue

What a waste of a great cast. Felt very phony

Full Review | Feb 28, 2024

It is conservative in its take on marriage and retrograde in its characters, who have no identities beyond their romantic relationships.

I’d wager Jacobs has something to say about love and infidelity, but it’s muddled and blurry, a series of cliches filtered through cardboard characters delivering overwrought bon mots on sets that look like model homes...

A light-hearted look at latter-life romance with some surprisingly thoughtful things to say...A finely tuned, affable comedy-drama about the emotional minefield of modern marriage.

Great cast, shame about the C-Grade Woody Allen material they’re saddled with.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | May 25, 2023

Even great works of stage drama can look stiff when presented on screen, and I’m guessing — based on what we see here — that Cheaters was never great in the first place.

‘…a tough-minded multiple-character drama that’s closer to the more abrasive Closer than it is to Sleepless in Seattle…

A nostalgic, greyish, melancholic vaudeville that's somewhat stale and old-fashioned yet well-intentioned and honest, ultimately hopeful and optimistic, entertaining and light, landing somewhere between bland and elegant. [Full review in Spanish]

Maybe I Do has a stellar ensemble that does what they can to infuse life into a screenplay without a pulse. [Full review in Spanish]

You don't have to be enlightened to imagine who are the parents, nor how a dinner will go, first uncomfortable and then followed by reflections on love and life as a couple. [Full review in Spanish]

Gere is the movie’s saving grace and somehow makes it all seem worth it.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 22, 2023

This understated ensemble piece, might raise some interesting questions on the nature of relationships, but the real pleasure comes from seeing a veteran cast getting stuck into a concisely scripted slice of drama.

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5 | Feb 19, 2023

Maybe I Do attempts insightful discourse on the merits of marriage. Verbose characters engage in unbelievable dialogue about what's missing from their lives. The forced set-up derails any meaningful conversation on lasting romance.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 18, 2023

That this enjoyable film is getting a tiny theatrical release in late January is more a function of how far the romcom genre has fallen than any reflection on the quality of the film.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 10, 2023

Thankfully, with two Academy Award-winners in Keaton and Sarandon, combined with Oscar-nommed Macy on fine form, and Richard Gere still exuding the suave charm he did in his 1980s heyday, Maybe I Do is worth watching for their performances alone.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 8, 2023

Overall, Maybe I Do is a harmless addition to the romantic comedy genre and does not do much to change it. Harmless, sweet, and brief, this is a nice little date movie that delivers exactly what it advertises.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Feb 7, 2023

Maybe I Do should be titled Maybe You Don't Want to Watch This Slow-Moving Train Wreck That's a Waste of Time and Talent. The principal cast members just recite their awful dialogue (often stiffly) and never look convincing as couples.

Full Review | Feb 5, 2023

Unable to truly lean into its moments and potential for humor and heart, Maybe I Do is a big don’t.
