The Vow

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams do their best with what they're given, but The Vow is too shallow and familiar to satisfy the discriminating date-night filmgoer.

The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Kimber Myers The Playlist The film isn't as bad as what it looks like--the Chinatown knockoff equivalent of a Nicholas Sparks movie--but that doesn't mean that those outside the target audience won't find it a painful experience. Rated: C Aug 15, 2013 Full Review The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Roger Moore Tribune News Service Like a Nicholas Sparks novel with a dash of wit, a hint of edge and a smidgen less sap. Rated: 2.5/4 Mar 23, 2012 Full Review The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle An earnest and occasionally touching romantic drama that sweeps aside the devastating narrative potential of a traumatic brain injury to traffic in a more benign depiction of amnesia. Rated: 2/5 Feb 17, 2012 Full Review The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Patricia Karounos Refinery29 That hypothetical scenario is enough to choke anyone up, but it’s the true story that inspired The Vow and was brought to life by Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams. Oct 23, 2023 Full Review The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com A paint-by-numbers romance yet it is a paint-by-numbers romance that will work for those who surrender to it. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Sep 26, 2020 Full Review The Vow (2012) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Brian D. Johnson Maclean's Magazine Rachel McAdams cruises merrily through The Vow as if she's humouring her co-star, the script and the audience. Jul 29, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Nina H Pretty bad and annoying Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review A S First whomever reworked and adapted the story did a TERRIBLE job. First, where were the wedding photos and picture albums? Where was the history for the relationship? The writers were very weak with building backstory. Also, being married the husband has the legal decision about his wife, especially if there has been mental incapacity not her estranged parents. Changing so much of the true information to fit their convoluted idea of this adaption of that real life story was irritating and just downright atrocious. The actors are the only thing that made the movie. But the storyline they created was infuriating rather than endearing. Unless you want to feel pissed off the wholw time don't bother watching. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Yash B I think "The Vow" is sweet enough to satisfy romance audiences and also give people something to watch as a date night movie. I do think the movie is romantic, but while watching it I felt so fixated on how sad and bleak this situation really is, and I felt kind of mixed about it by the time it ended. The two leads have good chemistry, but the movie never really allowed me to get to know them as individuals and just chooses to focus on them as a couple. I think there were layers that could have been explored here that are simply overlooked, but I still think the movie does a decent job at what it sets out to do. I do think some of the dialogue in the movie is not the best and overtly cheesy, but I also found myself invested in the main couple and was rooting for them. Overall, it may be a movie better suited for hardcore romance fans, but I do think it is something I enjoyed surprisingly more than I anticipated. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Abe M Awful. Worse than a soap opera from the 70's Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review inta k pretty sweet movie and story. love wins. and people find way to each other. in a perfect world... :) Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/06/23 Full Review Fi S A huge stretch of a story requires big acting and directing. Sadly it's a disjointed script, passive acting and gaps in believability. The drive to overcome the devastating accident and stay true to their marriage vows has been watered down to mild dating. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
