- Alex Bentley @ CultureMap Dallas
- Excerpt: There were a lot of directions that One Night Only could have gone in, but the version chosen by Gluck and Braun is close to the worst one. A film that could have been uproaringly funny or super sexy or very romantic winds up being none of those things, with each element getting the basic treatment and nothing more.

- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: If his high concept feels ripped off from “The Purge,” it works here as a statement against fascistic government overreach, albeit one as playfully implemented as his pharmaceutical ad running gag, the latter more pointed in its social implications.
- [New] | Sarah Gopaul @ Imagery at the Movies
- Excerpt: It is a rom-com about two people who will inevitably end up together, but the build-up is as good as the payoff.
- Merk Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: Starts with an intriguing premise that begs to be explored. Instead, it settles for a conventional love story built from silly contrivances.
- Kristian Lin @ Fort Worth Weekly
- Excerpt: There are many reasons to lament the decline of romantic comedy films at the box office, but One Night Only gives me another reason: Monica Barbaro would slay in them.
- Nell Minow @ moviemom.com
- Excerpt: Extremely attractive people with great chemistry, some genuinely funny situations and a touch of wit in the dialogue, a bunch of top actors in small parts, and some surprisingly sharp satire around the edges (watch for the posters and ads) make this more fun that you might expect. It helps that the movie itself does not take the premise too seriously.
- Allison Rose @ FlickDirect.com
- Excerpt: One Night Only turns an unusual dystopian premise into a funny, charming rom-com powered by terrific chemistry between Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner.
