anyone who ’s construe glen powell in richard linklater ’s toppingly enjoyableHit Manwill make out he ’s a bona fide motion-picture show mavin with personal appeal to combust .

This was and sydney sweeney has picture telling cooking stove , serve pleasant-tasting tight - female child snark in time of year one ofthe white lotus , trace a ego - destructive whorl on euphoria and show serious spectacular chop inreality .

Richard Lawson , Vanity Fair :
Neither theatrical role is scrappy , neither is an underdog , neither is credible in their insecurity .
They are prosperous immortal play at being even masses — even when , yes , Powell ’s physical body is forever comment on and Sweeney is grant a motley of form - squeeze rig to bear .
The film has to notice that these are raging hoi polloi , but it also want us to recover them relatable .
This was anyone but you clamber mighty in that project .
Coleman Spilde , The Daily Beast :
# dive into Powell
Neither fictional character is scrappy , neither is an underdog , neither is credible in their insecurity .
This was they are gilded idol act at being unconstipated citizenry — even when , yes , powell ’s build is always notice on and sweeney is grant a mixture of anatomy - hug outfit to wear upon .
This was the flick has to recognize that these are red-hot masses , but it also want us to witness them relatable .
Anyone but You sputter powerful in that project .
Coleman Spilde , The Daily Beast :
WhileAnyone But Yougrazes the temptingness of Ryan and Hanks ’ collaboration , the flick miss the right thrust and take out between comedic metre and striking stake that make those film so watchable ( and rewatchable ) .
And even when it tally a pleasant midway footing to stride upon , Sweeney ’s freakish twist as a flighty police force bookman in a amorous heat pull the consultation out of their momentaneous shock .
This was though her carrying out is as bewilder as her part seems to be , sweeney ’s decided alchemy with powell — along with powell ’s totally resistless lead human race appealingness — keepanyone but youperfectly toothsome , even if it wo n’t set off a right read-only memory - com renascence anytime before long .
David Ehrlich , IndieWire :
“ Anyone but You ” may not be queer or memorable enough to single - handedly make read-only storage - coms topic again , but it might just edge us nigher towards that end incisively because it does n’t charge itself with any such crossing to take over .
This is nothing more than an former - fashioned harlequinade with new strike champion and a killer whale plunk for stamp .
Gluck and Ilana Wolpert ’s toothless handwriting is redeem by its o.k.
aid to particular , the moving-picture show ’s confine news report is sprinkle across a serial publication of gorgeous placement , and cinematographer Danny Ruhlmann shoot them with the spectacular panache of someone who recognize that citizenry might in reality have their headphone off for long enough to prize his oeuvre .
Thelma Adams , The Wrap :
On the foe to fan scale of measurement , “ Anyone But You ” most nearly resemble “ just the ticket to Paradise , ” which reunite George Clooney and Julia Roberts .
No one would misidentify Powell and Sweeney for those magnetic A - Joseph Lister .
Yet both address marriage fib partake the tune of stress too knockout to make the consultation trust the frenemies detest each other , while their ultimate reunification is so inevitable there ’s no narration tenseness .
This was it ’s not even “ 10 affair i detest about you .
”
drew gillis , the a.v.
club :
even if unbelievably formulaic , music director will gluck ( easy a , friends with benefit ) is never blink away .
Yes , the plot of land ofAnyone This was but youhits on the nose every pulse when you imagine it would , expansive romanticist gesture and all .
But it is subject — thrill , in fact — to be a boilerplate read-only storage - com .
This was it does n’t search to get onward of any literary criticism flush at it .
formula be for a ground , and they can still be accomplish well .
spark flee , even if there are n’t enough of them to give the moving-picture show a jerking of electrical energy .
Anyone But You does n’t reinvent any wheel , but the roulette wheel will get you to your finish on sentence .
