Thescreescore – Colleen Hoover’s latest book-to-film adaptation, "Regretting You," is proving to be a polarizing cinematic experience. While critics have largely dismissed the romance drama, audiences are embracing it with open arms, resulting in a stark contrast in Rotten Tomatoes scores. The film, starring Dave Franco, Allison Williams, Mckenna Grace, and Mason Thames, currently holds a disappointing 30% "Rotten" rating from critics based on 53 reviews.
However, the audience response tells a completely different story. With over 100 verified user reviews, "Regretting You" boasts an impressive 90% "Popcorn Score," tripling the critics’ assessment. This enthusiastic reception positions the film as a potential "Verified Hot" title on the review aggregator, provided it maintains its current level of audience approval as more reviews come in.
Beyond simply rating the film positively, viewers are expressing strong appreciation for "Regretting You." Many reviews award the film 4.5 or 5 stars out of 5, highlighting its romantic charm, comedic elements, and overall appeal as a comforting and enjoyable movie experience. The on-screen chemistry between Mason Thames and Mckenna Grace, further fueled by rumors of a real-life romance, is also resonating strongly with viewers.

Despite the positive audience buzz, "Regretting You" is not expected to dominate the box office. Projections place it in the No. 3 or No. 4 spot for its opening weekend, trailing behind releases like "Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc," "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere," and potentially "Black Phone 2" (which also stars Mason Thames).
Unlike the previous Hoover adaptation, "It Ends with Us," which became a box office success despite reports of on-set tensions, "Regretting You" has not generated as much pre-release buzz. However, if the current audience enthusiasm persists throughout its theatrical run, "Regretting You" could become a word-of-mouth hit, defying initial expectations and solidifying its place as a fan-favorite romance. "Regretting You" was directed by Josh Boone and written by Susan McMartin, Josh Boone, and Colleen Hoover.
