	Media	Author	Review
		Noel Murray AV Club	"It may be the most unjustly ignored entry in the Altman catalog: a breezy L.A. romantic comedy"
		Janet Maslin The New York Times	"Both 'A Wedding' and 'A Perfect Couple' are watered-down reminders of the director's better work — so characteristic, and yet so dim"
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"The movie looks like several good ideas for several movies, made all at once and regardless of whether the pieces fit easily together. That's too bad, because the movie's got so many interesting things in it (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		Time Out	"Altman hits a note of surprising magic here (...) The search for togetherness is treated with a satirical sympathy, so that the happy ending (...) works as a real reward for both lovers and audience."
