After a lovely blind date, crossword-puzzle creator Mary Horowitz (Sandra Bullock) falls head over heels in love with Steve (Bradley Cooper), a news cameraman. Mary is convinced that she and Steve are soul mates, and with the encouragement of a reporter (Thomas Haden Church), follows Steve around the country in a bid to win his love. Along the way, she befriends an assortment of misfits who accept her for who she is, leading her to reassess her reasons for this strange journey.

Critics Consensus

All About Steve is an oddly creepy, sour film, featuring a heroine so desperate and peculiar that audiences may be more likely to pity than root for her.

On paper, a crazy romcom starring Sandra Bullock and Bradley Cooper could only be a good thing. Wrong.

All About Steve is a messy assemblage of clumsy sight gags, winking reaction shots and disingenuous populist genuflection to the idea that there's no such thing as normal. We all see a little bit of Mary in ourselves, don't we? Don't we?

Kooky? Hardly. Cringing? Most assuredly.

Even talented and preternaturally attractive people can't entirely engross us without the help of a good script.

All About Steve may be a harmless escapade, but sitting through it proves to be a painful experience.

I genuinely don't see the problem with this movie, and I don't understand why everyone hates it. Honestly I don't really care what critics say cause I've seen the most cringy, creepy and not so great movies, (dogtooth for example) and they get 80% and 90% on here. This movie was actually really funny and her character is smart and unique and quirky and weird and awkward. It's relatable. Not every single girl is the perfect girl who has a perfect personality, we have quirks, sometimes we talk to damn much, sometimes we're s little crazy. There are not that many rom com female characters like this and it's refreshing. And Sandra did a great job. And people saying she's crazy for chasing him and it's sad and embarrassing, yet when it's the other way around, the guy chasing the girl half way around the country or the nerdy awkward guy obsessed with and crushing on the popular girl. It's Romantic and sweet ?? like please. A low rotten Tomatoes score doesn't always mean the movie is bad. Watch for yourself and make your own judgement.

Kinda lame. It's just a woman obsessing over a man and doing anything to be with him. Quirky comedy but more quirky than anything
