Review of The Five-Year Engagement (2012)

By Marshall Fine (1,011) for Hollywood & Fine (854) on 25 Apr 2012

By Peter Travers (3,602) for Rolling Stone (4,035) on 25 Apr 2012

Review of The Five-Year Engagement (2012)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 25 Apr 2012

Five-Year Engagement alternates between realistic scenes of couples bickering and broad character farce, and the two halves mesh uneasily…

By Joanna Langfield (398) for The Movie Minute (398) on 24 Apr 2012
