Critical response
Rio, I Love You received largely negative reviews from critics. On the review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an 8% "rotten" rating based on 25 reviews, with an average rating of 3.55 out of 10.[3] Pat Padua of The Washington Post said "the film is wonderful to look at. It’s just that the writing is consistently terrible".[4] Ben Kenigsberg of The New York Times heavily criticized the film's lack of cohesion and its adherence to tourist-friendly depictions of Rio de Janeiro. He also noted it has the corporate sponsorship of Fiat, Unilever and others.[5] Miami New Times' Kenji Fujishima calls it a "barrel-scraping collective project." Eye For Films Andrew Robertson rated it two stars and calls it "baffling in construction and execution"[6] The Hollywood Reporter's unattributed review says "The only people sure to love this concoction are those working for Rio’s tourism bureau, which may well have picked the camera’s vantage points for many lush and lovely overhead shots of the city’s distinctive terrain."[7]

The cycle has acquired corporate sponsorship (Fiat and Unilever appear prominently in this film’s credits) and the support of Rio de Janeiro...But apart from Im Sang-soo’s contribution of street-dancing vampires — a sketch that, like several others, lacks a punch line — imagination takes a holiday.
