What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
The New York Times by Andy Webster
The conventions are trundled out in Stanley J. Orzel’s cross-cultural romance, Lost for Words, but not the tension or the chemistry.
Chicago Sun-Times by Bill Stamets
Lost for Words is directed with little originality by Stanley J. Orzel.
Sufficiently sweet to serve as a date movie for all ages, Lost for Words comes across as almost subversively retrograde in its old-fashioned approach to charting the slow blossoming of a cross-cultural romance.
Los Angeles Times by Martin Tsai
The film's colorblindness does not make up for its latent sexism.
