Mohar Basu· Times Of India
6.0
"Though it is commendable that a British film has taken a rather pragmatic, matured and non religious stand on euthanasia, it is a shame that the film never delves deeper into the debate or makes a convincing case in its favour. Me Before You gets busy whipping up a tragic tale instead of making a point about the delicate issue."

"The movie has already incited a few complaints about its portrayal of quadriplegics and its glossing over of the touchy subject of state-assisted suicide. But it's a sugar-coated romantic comedy with everything you're looking for in a chick flick/chick lit and not a gritty documentary."

"It's the premeditated glossed out treatment that really hurts here. Director Thea Sharrock's helming is not a smoothly coordinated one. The lack of grittiness and honesty in the telling is also a drawback."

"The misunderstandings, the love, the heartbreak, the tears, the wedding, concerts, races, mad dash to the airport, the night of somewhat passion, the first kiss, all check out and you are finally left with a voice from beyond, in a letter being read in a sunny bistro in Paris — there is nowhere to hide in cliché central."

"Emilia Clarke's popularity will ensure that a lot of people will watch Me Before You. If you love her in Game of Thrones, give this latest movie a miss. Me Before You is strictly for fans of romantic films."
