Summerland is a well-meaning but ultimately failed work that is brought down by too much hackneyed melodrama and fatally bland execution.

4 stars out of 5 -- Arterton turns in a massively impressive performance as Alice, just as vulnerable as she is spiky, as does Bond. Their chemistry is striking throughout.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
For what it is, Summerland is solidly made, but don't expect anything extraordinary from the production.

Rating: B- --
The movie eventually finds its summerland, its happy place, its version of heaven. It will take you there, too, if you allow it.

Detroit News
[An] amiable debut....Swaddled in the seablown watercolors of DP Laurie Rose’s bright, fresh photography, the story has the well-meaning simplicity of a kids classic.
Variety
It's good to see some gifted character actors among the supporting cast, notably Tom Courtenay, Siân Phillips and Amanda Root...
Hollywood Reporter
Rating: 2/5 --
Swale's moments of lyricism are quite poignant, but the plot gets badly out of hand.
