"Voicemails for Isabelle" has a high emotional IQ, a romantic journey you’ll want to follow, and a real sense of the lunacy that makes life hilarious—even when we’re hurting.

It all adds up to a wonderful surprise of a film, the kind that makes you remember just what we’ve been missing as these women-centric genres have fallen out of fashion. Voicemails For Isabelle will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you believe it’s not embarrassing for a movie to strive to be “life-affirming.” It should also solidify McKendrick as a filmmaker who can finally bring all those elements back into the mainstream.

A Netflix Movie Fit for the Big Screen
- Liz Declan, Screenrant
A Rom Com that rises above the familiar with the sheer delight of the chemistry between its two stars: the magnetic Zoey Deutch (Nouvelle Vague) and the ever-reliable Nick Robinson (Love, Simon). Here, Netflix gets it right.

The appealing Zoey Deutch is the best reason to watch “Voicemails for Isabelle.” Written and directed by Leah McKendrick (who also plays a small, amusing role), the movie begins as a tear-jerker and morphs into a rom-com with poignant notes.
