Reviews

Critics have had mixed feelings about 'The Perfect Date'. While some have praised Noah Centineo's charismatic performance and the film's lighthearted humor, others have criticized its formulaic plot and lack of depth. The Hollywood Reporter complimented the movie for its 'charming energy' and 'likeable characters', giving it a positive rating. On the contrary, Variety pointed out the predictable nature of the storyline and the lack of originality in the romantic comedy genre. Rotten Tomatoes' rating of 68% indicates a generally favorable reception, with some reviewers appreciating the film's feel-good vibes and engaging ensemble cast. However, IMDb's rating of 5.8/10 suggests a more subdued response from audiences, likely due to the movie's familiar tropes and predictable narrative. Overall, 'The Perfect Date' delivers an enjoyable viewing experience that appeals to fans of rom-coms and Noah Centineo's fanbase.
