Village Voice
Winter's Tale, however imperfect, is that rare beast on the movie landscape: an unapologetic romance (for the first two-thirds, anyway), with attractive stars and special effects designed to give audiences something other than the experience of watching worlds get blown up. - 50
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Winter’s Tale has no narrative drive and too little heart to come off. - 50
Arizona Republic
Earnest in its ambition but dopey in its execution, Winter’s Tale never takes flight. - 50
Entertainment Weekly
It's no coincidence that Winter's Tale is being released on Valentine's Day, when our resistance to schmaltz is at its weakest. But do that special someone in your life a favor and splurge on some flowers and a nice heart-shaped Russell Stover box instead. - 42
The A.V. Club
Though viewers may have trouble watching any of this with a straight face, the movie’s goofy corniness becomes marginally endearing, in a hobbling-puppy sort of way. - 30
Variety
The best miracles are those that creep up on you unexpectedly rather than endlessly announcing themselves, and the ones in Winter’s Tale are fatally obvious and self-congratulatory. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Aspiring transcendent love stories don't come much more claptrappy and unconvincing than Winter's Tale. - 25
Observer
Movies get crazier and more incomprehensible every day, but you don’t know demented until you see Winter’s Tale.
