Critics have had mixed reactions to 'The Vow.' On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a 32% approval rating, indicating a general disappointment among critics.

Meanwhile, IMDb users rated it 6.8/10, reflecting a more favorable audience response than critical reviews. Some viewers appreciated the performances of McAdams and Tatum, with one saying, 'Their chemistry shines through the script's weaknesses.'
