- It is a deeply powerful story and an enjoyable watching experience. The story is real, the directing subtlety emboldens the emotions, and the two McGregors are excellent. I thoroughly recommend this drama.
- 67ColliderMarco Vito OddoColliderMarco Vito OddoWhile the road is frequently more important than the destination, the lack of surprises may test the audience’s attention span, especially in the third act, when both characters are already well-established and we understand their inner struggles. That said, You Sing Loud, I Sing Louder is still a powerful family drama enhanced by phenomenal performances.
- 63Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreThe right emotional buttons are punched, enough of them at just the right moment for Bleeding Love to not bleed out. It plays like 12 step cinematic comfort food, and if you’re drawn to it and find yourself enjoying it, no “making amends” is necessary.
- 50The New York TimesManohla DargisThe New York TimesManohla DargisSincere and grindingly predictable, this particular journey mixes tears and reams of dialogue, accusations and confessions with the usual roadside attractions, including a convenience store, a quirky motel and some lightly offbeat American types.
- 50RogerEbert.comKatie RifeRogerEbert.comKatie RifeIt’s a film that’s been thought out but doesn’t reach any new conclusions; that assembles some good elements, but doesn’t really consider how they all fit together. The truthful elements are not enough to overcome the clumsy and cliché ones, and in the end it’s a film that’s more satisfying before you know how it ends.
- 40Screen RantAlexander HarrisonScreen RantAlexander HarrisonBleeding Love remains under-written and over-directed, unable to fully justify the time it asks for. If you're wanting to see Ewan McGregor do some quality acting, there are plenty of more rewarding options.
- 20The GuardianPeter BradshawThe GuardianPeter BradshawThis unbearably cute joint selfie of a movie is gruesomely indulgent and entitled from the first; it allows Ewan McGregor little or no opportunity to show his natural wit and flair and there is oddly no real chemistry between him and his co-star.
