- Bill Clark @ From The Balcony
- Excerpt: Love the Coopers is as much a comedy as a Christmas movie, in that it’s neither and more a drama taking place around Christmas that eeks out a few laughs.
- Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: ‘Love the Coopers’ is the latest middling compilation of characters trying to navigate the holidays with their equally dissatisfied family members.

- Excerpt: Glossy Hollywood automatons sleepwalk through family dynamics full of forced quirkiness, excruciating cuteness, and phony emotion. Absolutely cringeworthy.

- Excerpt: Revisit the Griswolds this year.

- Excerpt: As welcome as Christmas decorations before Halloween, Love the Coopers is an astonishingly lazy tale of holiday dysfunction that ineptly follows in the footsteps of a host of better movies.
- [New – 1/7/16] | James Marsh @ South China Morning Post
- Excerpt: Love the Coopers reminds us that there are few things worse than booze-fuelled family gatherings, but one of them is definitely schmaltzy Hollywood movies about such reunions. Drawing numerous narrative threads towards a climactic yuletide dinner, the film introduces four generations of one family, who must overcome grudges and failings, let slip the odd lingering secret, and possibly realise the true meaning of Christmas.

- Excerpt: Even the dog in this movie is depressed. We know that because during two cutaway shots of the canine eating off of someone’s plate, narrator Steve Martin explains that he’s stress-eating. Yes, one such shot was not enough to get the point across.
