St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Although the film begins promisingly, it proves to be little more than a soap opera.

Eckhart has even less chemistry with Aniston than he did with fellow narcissist Catherine Zeta-Jones in 2007’s "No Reservations," going soft and gooey only when he and Martin Sheen, as Burke’s father-in-law, share a big cry.

Miami Herald
An incredibly lazy movie -- but not an unbearable one, thanks to Aaron Eckhart's charm.

Love Happens announces itself as a romantic comedy but doesn't speak the language of love. Instead, it trades in the slogans of self-help procedural.

Variety
Excise the love story, and there's a pretty good movie buried within Love Happens struggling to get out, mostly to little avail.
