5 / 10
Translated from swedish: "Letters to Juliet" is beautiful on the surface, but hollow on the inside. An utterly mediocre romantic dramedy where the biggest plus goes to old spaghetti western legend Franco Nero who delivers a lovely supporting performance in an otherwise rather bland ensemble that looks more like they're enjoying a nice sunny vacation than anything else.

3 / 6
Translated from swedish: Unsurprisingly, both screenwriters are men. Why do they try to construct women like this? "Letters to Juliet" is, however, hyperromantic, and if you're in that mood, it can be seen as a love letter to Europe and a decent summer flick.

3 / 6
Translated from swedish: On the right side of the sugar shock.

4 / 10
Translated from swedish: The premise might not be so bad, but there's too much teary-eyed melodrama, hand-holding, and dialogue weighed down by clichés. Sophie is also so virtuous and flawless that she's barely tolerable.

2 / 5
Translated from swedish: Predictable, overly romantic, and with a couple lacking chemistry, "Letters to Juliet" can't be saved even by the wonderful Vanessa Redgrave and countless beautiful views of Tuscany.

1 / 5
Translated from swedish: "Letters to Juliet" is a sentimental stinker that may have landed in a charming landscape – but still smells like a skunk. Be prepared to squirm until you're dizzy.

1 / 5
Translated from swedish: The actors in "Letters to Juliet" are stuck dealing with a terrible script in this artificial and clichéd story about the search for love.
