Entertainment Reviews:
Nerd wish-fulfillment of the first order, this Canadian rom-com places an artificial barrier between its cute-as-a-button leads and asks us to stick around for an hour and a half until it's artificially removed.

We're used to rom-coms that show off hot bodies (see Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis in Friends With Benefits). With these two, it's their melancholy average-ness that make us go wow.

Rating: C+ --
A film that has a bit of charm but leaves audiences wondering what if these actors could have gotten better material.

An enjoyable jaunt through a stale genre.

[I]t often works -- not through some miracle, but because of the effort director Michael Dowse and his cast have put into making the characters seem sweet and believably charming… -- Grade: B-
A.V. Club
If this all sounds a bit unromantic, What If certainly shows true love is difficult. For this boy and girl, falling hard for someone is a choice rather than a destiny.

Its plotting is predictable but Kazan and Radcliffe make a thoroughly engaging double act.

Product Description:
Michael Dowse's romantic comedy WHAT IF explores the tried and true question can men and women ever be just friends. Dropout med student Wallace (Daniel Radcliffe) makes the acquaintance of aspiring animator Chantry (Zoe Kazan), and though they quickly take an instant liking to each other, she is committed to her live-in boyfriend Ben (Rafe Spall). They agree just to be friends, but when Ben is forced to live in Europe for work, Wallace and Chantry grow more intimate. Meanwhile, Wallace's best friend Allan (Adam Driver) encourages him to stop dithering and tell Chantry how he really feels about her. WHAT IF screened at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.
