Critic Reviews:
- " The filmmakers have made somewhat hokey, unbelievable material into something thoughtful and artful. " – Tim Brayton
- " ‘What if I told you I could make you fall in love with me, scientifically?’ Daniel proposes to a skeptical Natasha. As chat-up lines go, it's out there, but this is a story that isn't afraid of a leap of logic. " – James Luxford
- " Charming opposites-attract adaptation has romance, language. " – Sandie Angulo Chen
