Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: Generic but harmless comedy. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: ... dopey sit com stuff ... Read more
Allison Benedikt, Chicago Tribune: Cannon is an uncomfortable presence on screen, both as the dorky Alvin and as his transformed self, stylin' Al. Read more
Ted Fry, Seattle Times: The blandly obvious story of high-school romance and the venal, materialistic, self-involved teens who inhabit its suburban California setting couldn't be less interesting. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Flat and witless and moves at the speed of a mid-tempo ballad. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: One of those rare films about teenagers that tries to be both sassy and sweet -- and succeeds on both counts. Read more
Michael Booth, Denver Post: This teen ugly-duckling comedy can't rise above the level of your average TV sitcom. Read more
Scott Brown, Entertainment Weekly: You realize you're watching a snuff film, where the victim isn't just teen innocence but teen romance. Read more
Matt Weitz, Dallas Morning News: In true Hollywood fashion, this remake conjures up only about 80 percent of the appeal of its source, leaving the viewer with the question: Was this film really necessary? Read more
Ernest Hardy, L.A. Weekly: Short on charm, purpose or laughs. Read more
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger: Nothing more than a cynical attempt to dress a blah story in bling-bling fashion. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: Where the original was slight but sweet, the remake is depressingly superficial and cynical. Read more
Dave Kehr, New York Times: There are unlearned lessons, too, including the one about the propriety of a teenage girl's entering into a relationship that, whether or not sex is required, amounts to soft-core prostitution. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: A charmless, Afro-centric spin on Can't Buy Me Love. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: An atrociously unfunny, unromantic, and unpleasant product. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: It has better values than the original, a little more poignancy, some sweetness. Read more
Carla Meyer, San Francisco Chronicle: Clocking in at 105 minutes, Love Don't Cost a Thing drags for stretches. Read more
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail: As a romantic comedy, the movie misses an important transition: When exactly, during Alvin's transformation from loser to fatuous blowhard, does Paris fall for him? Read more
Susan Walker, Toronto Star: A movie as forgettable as the original. Read more
Laura Sinagra, Village Voice: Since Cannon and Milian have to squash any frisson to avoid sinking into pure escort-service sleaze, there's not much rom in the rom-com. Read more
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post: This variation certainly makes its points effectively, in what must be a more superheated milieu. Read more
