Reviews
The reception of "Happiness Is..." has been mixed, with a moderate rating of 5.7/10 on IMDb reflecting a divided critical consensus. Some reviewers have praised the film for its sincere attempts to capture the essence of happiness through a mosaic of personal stories. For instance, critics noted the film's emotional warmth and the relatable depiction of human desires and struggles. However, others found the anthology format somewhat disjointed, suggesting that the stories lacked depth and cohesion, which affected the overall impact. On Rotten Tomatoes, while the film did not receive a broad critic consensus due to limited release, user reviews tended to highlight the charming performances and thematic ambition but criticized uneven pacing and occasional melodrama. Metacritic does not have an official score, illustrating the limited international critical coverage. Overall, the film is regarded as a thoughtful but flawed exploration that resonates more with viewers who appreciate character-driven, modestly paced dramas.
