Chicago Sun-Times -
A sweet, entertaining retread of an ancient formula, in which opposites attract despite all the forces arrayed to push them apart.

ReelViews -
If you want daring or original, Fools Rush In isn't the movie to see. Like 90% of all romantic comedies, it follows a time-honored formula that allows little room for variation.

San Francisco Examiner -
Perhaps a bit miscast, and with a penchant for too many double-takes, Perry nonetheless is game.

USA Today -
Hurried, harried. [14 February 1997, pg.D4]

Chicago Reader -
Though the climax of the story is a little forced and sloppy, with both lovers behaving way out of character, this movie is aware enough of the conventions it's using that it's more moving than cloying.
