Variety
Unlike "Four Weddings," which ultimately was moralistic and conservative in its message --—About Adam is a frolic free of any judgments, and marked by Stembridge's sparkling wit. - 80
Los Angeles Times
A sly romantic comedy made with wit and style. - 75
Philadelphia Inquirer
Delightfully reflect the abandonment of the old image and way of life. - 70
Village Voice
Hudson is ebullient, never cutesy, and her accent stays in tune. - 63
Boston Globe
In a moralistic time, About Adam is something of an anomaly, as it airily sticks to its pro-naughtiness agenda. - 63
New York Post
Thanks to Hudson and the other women, it's a moderately beguiling date movie. - 60
