Aside from its lesbian theme, Imagine Me & You can only offer more of the same generic rom-com cliches.

Imagine Me & You shamelessly embraces every romantic-comedy cliché in the book. Go to Full Review Xan Brooks Guardian Jun 24, 2006
2/5
Brit-com business as usual, right down to the outbursts of posh swearing and the fraught, last-minute dash through the London traffic. Go to Full Review Edward Lawrenson Time Out Jun 24, 2006
The American Perabo (doing a good English accent) and Headey are likable leads -- and Goode brings a touching vulnerability to his role as the luckless Heck. Go to Full Review Princess Weekes The Mary Sue Mar 10, 2021
It was nice seeing it not being either a traditional coming out story or inherently a gayangst story-just a love connection with bad timing that ends up working out, without turning anyone into a bad person. Go to Full Review Tara Thorne The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia) Jul 11, 2016
Imagine Me & You is... a quietly compelling, heartwarming watch, exactly the kind of thing people have in mind when they say, "It's a renter." Go to Full Review Heather Boerner Common Sense Media Dec 18, 2010

What's refreshing about this movie is that every character is interesting and loveable. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

SIMAS C @simas_eros Oct 23, 2026 A charming film, complete with all the hallmarks of English conservatism, about a married woman whose husband falls in love with another woman. Light and entertaining, though lacking any great originality. See more Juris O @Juris100 Oct 11, 2026 An empty film with lesbians mixed in. See more Alexandra S @RT13362043 Sep 15, 2026 Love this.
