McNamara gave the film 3/5 stars, praising the well-assembled cast and the setting in the Irish countryside, noting that the film was more a [[Coming-of-age|coming-of-age]] story than a romance.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/finding-you|title=Finding You Movie Review|author=Tara McNamara|publisher=[[Common Sense Media]]|date=9 April 2021|accessdate=May 15, 2021}}</ref>
