When Sleeping with Other People does hit — which is a lot of the time — it’s an invigorating spicing up of formula; a winning balance of hedonism and heart that’s unapologetic about either quality

Full Review | Nov 15, 2023

Essentially a Meg Ryan picture with quippier dialogue, Sleeping with Other People turns into “sleeping with one person for the rest of your life,” adhering to the usual stakes and upholding the status quo.

Might have been more effective if it didn't adhere so strictly to the old possum that men and women can't be friends.

The project tries its best to avoid the romantic comedy tropes it initially depended on while also imparting a bit of dramatic heart.

Brie masters the film's little moments.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 23, 2020

Sleeping With Other People is pure fluff, not nearly as subversive as it wants to be.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Jul 14, 2020

Although not everything in the film works, it's likable overall and far better than most other romantic comedies the last couple of years.

[Jason] Sudeikis and [Alison] Brie have great chemistry together and the film is quite funny.

Jason Sudeikis and Alison Brie's fantastic lead performances keep alive this otherwise fairly familiar romantic comedy set-up.

Sleeping With Other People is from the writer and director of The Bachelorette and tries to be adventurous but in the end leaves you thinking sleeping with other people gets tiresome quickly.

Full Review | Aug 22, 2018

An unfortunately hideous affair. Toplined by two skilled comedic actors who both deserve more than the trite script awards them, the crudity builds throughout, resulting in a film that's deeply unpleasant.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 13, 2018

This seems smug and overindulged, with several scenes feeling like they've been improvised way past a point when that's a good thing.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 25, 2017

Sleeping revives romantic comedy by populating it with fully fleshed-out characters. The stars are both sympathetic and charming, especially Sudeikis-who knew he had it in him after years of post-SNL comedies?

If anything, the film works best as a showcase for [Allison] Brie, who can turn on a dime from silly to serious.

Regardless of your feelings about When Harry Met Sally, make sure to put Sleeping with Other People on your watch list.

Full Review | Aug 7, 2017

Romantic comedies are a dime a dozen, and there are some pretty good ones out there. Sleeping With Other People, while it has some entertaining elements, is not one of them.

A must see for fans of Brie and Sudeikis, but there's not enough in the film to tell the majority to rush out immediately.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 6, 2017

Neither romantic nor comic enough to be a great romcom, but still date-night worthy.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 5, 2016

A retrograde romantic comedy that disguises itself as a transgressive movie. [Full review in Spanish]
