Fools Rush In Ratings & Reviews
[ e c k o b a s e ]
February 10, 2025
Standard RomCom with the Late Matthew Perry, a culture shock exaggeration with some laughs and emotions!
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
"Friends" rush in where even fools would fear to tread.
Robin Holabird
Robin Holabird
Hayak's Latin roots diversify the music...the movie also makes good use of the Nevada-Arizona border at Hoover Dam.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...completely bland and hopelessly generic...
Variety
Todd McCarthy
There are emotional and character truths lurking about in Katherine Reback's screenplay, but they are rendered more frivolous and caricatured than they needed to be.
TheMovieReport.com
Michael Dequina
A fun no-brainer that successfully casts a sweet romantic spell.
About.com
Fred Topel
No laughs in this one at all. Who decided to write a movie about a club designer? Boring concept, no chemistry.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Perry makes an awkward and unattractive leading man. But Hayek is all warmth and humor. When the film isn't making her look foolish, it's possible to see a hint of better things to come.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
"Fools Rush In," which dares to take the time needed to set up its story properly, accrues substance and edge with the interplay of the cultures represented by Alex's WASP background and Isabel's proud Mexican American heritage.
USA Today
Mike Clark
Take away the ethnic/pregnancy angles, and we've seen this premise countless times -- all the way back to the spate of post-World War II romances about returning veterans and the mates they married in a blink.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Fools Rush In' is a sweet, entertaining retread of an ancient formula, in which opposites attract despite all the forces arrayed to push them apart.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The film never gets past the unlikelihood that its characters have much chance of living happily ever after. Or of finding real heat or humor along the way.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
This isn't real life. It isn't even a movie. It's an extended sitcom. And for the first time in your life, you'll actually beg for commercials.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
A stilted culture clash (she loves her colorful family in Vegas, he loves hot dogs in Manhattan; big problem) - and the opportunity for Perry to act monochromatically conflicted until it's time for the movie to end...
