| Box Office Mark Keizer It’s the tradition that American studio romantic comedies must be artificial, assembly line driven and lacking surprise. Which is to say Leap Year is an American studio romantic comedy. | 5 | |
| Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Bottom line: This is a full-bore, PG-rated, sweet rom-com. It sticks to the track, makes all the scheduled stops and bears us triumphantly to the station. And it is populated by colorful characters, but then, when was the last time you saw a boring Irishman in a movie? | 15 |  |
| eye Weekly Edward Keenan The Irish landscape and Adams considerable charms are fun to watch for a while, but like the tiny boat and tinier car she boards at points in the story, they aren’t powerful enough vehicles to carry the film to its destination. | 5 | |
| ScreenIt C. Fuchs The best thing the film has going for it are its stunning Irish locations. | 8 |  |
| Metacritic.com 33 critics | 6 | |
| Rottentomatoes critics 115 critics | 8 | |
| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Amy Adams is as appealing as ever, but her charms aren't enough to keep Leap Year from succumbing to an overabundance of clichés and an unfunny script. | 4 | |
