Hitfix -
While I think If I Stay has to do a fair amount of juggling to get its premise to work, there is a cumulative power to it that I found undeniable and earned.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service -
Manipulative, contrived, melodramatic — all labels we slap on that most perfectly titled movie genre, “the weeper.” All fit If I Stay like original packaging.

Village Voice -
[Cutler] approaches all these teenage hyperfeelings with respect and sensitivity. It doesn’t hurt that he has Moretz in his corner.
|
|
Time Out -
For a drama pretty much aimed at 12-year-old girls, it’s less superficial than you’d expect.

|
Austin Chronicle -
Few genuine moments throw into even sharper relief the tedious trappings which surround this, your average teenage tragedy.
