Reviews

The Hollywood Reporter -
A self-aware laffer that indulges in rom-com contrivance up until the point it judo-flips them to its own ends.
|
|
The Dissolve -
As contemporary romantic comedies go, it’s by no means an embarrassment, ranging from politely bland at its worst to very nearly inspired at its best. It could have been so much more, though, had its makers been prepared to grapple with the genuinely thorny, surprisingly incisive idea at the movie’s center.

|
Los Angeles Times -
A Case of You is perfectly enjoyable as far as indie rom coms go — just not particularly original.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
The movie is about as generic as modern romantic comedies get.
|
|
The New York Times -
While this unrelentingly midtempo movie milks Brooklyn for its chic, it manages to denude it of its color.
