One Day

Twenty years. Two people.


One Day
In some ways a ''When Harry Met Sally'' for a younger generation, we follow two good lookers over the course of twenty year. They had a one night stand the day they graduated from university, and then went their separate ways. Each year on that anniversary, they hook up to catch up with each other's lives. While he's had success and faded, she's struggled to come from nowhere to be something. Now that their power roles are effectively reversed, does love have a chance?

Box Office
Pam Grady quote iconIn theory, this should be a perfect mating of director, screenwriter and story. The dismal reality is that this romantic drama is a disaster, a dour When Harry Meets Sally that tries to jerk tears out of the story of a man and a woman who go from friends to lovers.
3
Chicago Sunday Times
Roger Ebert quote iconIn a season of movies dumb and dumber, One Day has style, freshness, and witty bantering dialogue.
15
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers quote iconThis tear-jerking twaddle, adapted by David Nicholls from his 2009 bestseller, is nearly as bad as Anne Hathaway's British accent, which is heading for infamy.

ScreenIt
C. Fuchs quote iconOne Day has its moments, but feels more like its plot's 20-some years in sitting through the rest of the dreck to get to them.
