What are critics saying?

80

Collider by Robert Brian Taylor

This is a movie that deserves to be discovered, to be recommended to friends, and to develop a cult following that lingers on. It's just too much fun to settle for less.

RogerEbert.com by Monica Castillo

This is not your typical “bank robbery gone wrong” kind of movie, nor does it follow the familiar beats of a Bonnie and Clyde-style “lovers on the lam” story. “Marmalade” is a strange mix of its own, launching the rom com criminal premise to thrilling heights.

Screen Rant by Rachel LaBonte

Marmalade is one wild ride, as long as you're willing to stick with it.

60

Film Threat by Alex Saveliev

A Gen-Z Bonnie and Clyde, Marmalade takes big, admirable swings, and while it misses some, it avoids the cardinal sin of being boring.

60

The Guardian by Leslie Felperin

The stars are toothsome and have a fizzy chemistry, while the ending is surprisingly poignant for all its corniness.

35

Paste Magazine by Brianna Zigler

Marmalade is the kind of just okay, middle-of-the-road, nearly inventive but still mostly derivative indie that at least has the decency to be only 90 minutes.

20

The New York Times by Ben Kenigsberg

In essence, Marmalade pretends to be more dunderheaded than it is, then acts as if it’s been smart all along, in a shift that takes it from insulting to incoherent.
