What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Helen Herimbi  A dull take on doomsday... | 10 |  |
| Cape Times Stephen Dalton Sharp script and bitter-sweet humour. | 10 | |
| Box Office Kate Erbland Seeking a Friend will benefit from great word of mouth and could last in theaters long enough to go out with a bang, not a whimper. | 15 |  |
| ReelViews James Berardinelli Seeking a Friend wants to say something about the human need to connect, and it does so in a convincing and satisfying way. This is a flawed motion picture, but it has stuck with me longer than I expected. It's as life-affirming as an extinction event film can be. | 15 | |
| ScreenIt C. Fuchs If anything, it's an entertaining and well-made if bittersweet wake up call to get out, live life to its fullest, get over past issues and -- to paraphrase Queen -- find somebody to love, because everyone's days are numbered and our time on this planet is far too short. | 16 | |

| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Tender, charming, and well-acted, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is unfortunately hamstrung by jarring tonal shifts and a disappointing final act. | 10 | |
