Critics Consensus

Lightly entertaining even as it hews to genre conventions, Upgraded is an appealing option for anyone seeking a good old-fashioned rom-com.

Linda Holmes NPR I think they set it in this very specific world of art, which, even if it's not entirely accurate, it's specific. So within its own world, it feels developed. May 10, 2024 Full Review Natalia Winkelman New York Times The movie is unevenly directed, and some scenes struggle to clear even the low bar set by more polished streaming originals. But Young succeeds nonetheless in channeling the freshman thrill of plunging into an alluring adult milieu. Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Samantha Bergeson indieWire This is a story about women supporting women, especially across generations, and that’s what makes Upgraded resonate more than just a frothy rom-com would. Rated: B+ Feb 9, 2024 Full Review Archi Sengupta LeisureByte.com This forgettable rom-com does nothing to excite you or make your heart flutter because there are hardly any stakes. Rated: 2/5 Jul 4, 2024 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies You can actually see the blueprint for a good art-world comedy and the movie certainly has the cast for it. But the wedged-in romance drags the movie down mainly because there’s nothing remotely fresh or original about it. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 5, 2024 Full Review Michael Cook KLRT-TV Amazon Prime & Netflix kinda churn out these romantic comedies, sometimes they're kinda not great, but this is one of the better ones. It's helped by Marisa Tomei's & Lena Olin's fantastic performances. It can be a little predictable though. Rated: 8/10 Mar 2, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Khaztiel D Una comedia romántica en donde la protagonista tiene claro cuales son sus objetivos. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/27/24 Full Review Samantha K I think we all knew Anna was going to get her own gallery, this film reminded me of ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ movie, however, I didn’t see any chemistry between Billy & Anna, and I wanted to so badly! But it just wasn’t there, which was disappointing! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/21/24 Full Review Gabriela B I hoped the main character would use her talent, knowledge, and love for art to propel her in her career. There some but ultimately very few moments of this. She ended up succeeding by getting lucky that she met someone on a plane, and that was very disappointing. The actors were good, I always love seeing Archie Renaux, but I think the script is hard to swallow. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/24 Full Review Ronaldo L Fanfic of a 12 years old girl Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/28/24 Full Review William R Very enjoyable rom-com. Didn't have some of the usual standard rom-com things in it which made it better! Like the usual phone call that interrupts a kiss for the first time! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/26/24 Full Review Hal E I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised as I was expecting a typical cliched rom-com. Instead, I found that I thoroughly enjoyed this movie including the stellar cast, and even the supporting cast, as all were fleshed out well allowing the viewer to get a true sense of their personalities along with some plot twists, making you want to watch and see how it all wraps up. Kudos to the writers, director, and wonderful cast for a highly entertaining rom-com, which is very rare indeed. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
