      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Mad Love tries to juggle mental illness with meet-cute, and the end result is a misguided rom-com whose sparks resolutely fail to fly.

      Steve D Surprisingly powerful given the tricky subject. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review andrey k This films captures the passions of teen years very well; I remember this film made a deep emotional impression on me somehow when I was a teenager myself. With a choice soundtrack, fine performances, especially of Drew Barrymore - just watch her in the scene in the cafeteria - this film has a soul. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Mike J Great job robin please keep making Batman films also Spider-Man 3 needs to be made give Andrew Garfield a chance. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/22 Full Review Audience Member I really like this movie!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review antonis k Barrymore and O'Donnell are great together but the plot is rather problematic and ruins the film. (5.5/10) Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review william s Barrymore's needy vulnerability is sad and that air raps like a noose around this movie's neck.

      Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly Rated: B Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Emanuel Levy Variety Though well-acted by Chris O'Donnell and Drerw Barrymore, this is yet another version of amour fou and love on the run that makes little sense and fails to reach the heart. Rated: C Aug 21, 2006 Full Review Toronto Star Rated: 3/5 Jan 18, 2003 Full Review Anderson Jones Philadelphia Daily News It's like several of MTV's "Alternative Nation" videos strung together, occasionally interrupted by dialogue. Rated: 3/4 Apr 26, 2022 Full Review Chuck O'Leary FulvueDrive-in.com Rated: 2/5 May 7, 2007 Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International Despite the old-fashioned ideology, at least Mad Love is good to look at.
