After an ill-fated audition at a prestigious New York music school, Finley Sinclair follows in her late brother Alex's footsteps and takes up a student exchange program he once took, travelling to a coastal village in Ireland to begin a semester studying abroad.

The website's critics consensus reads: "Although Finding You manages to fit every contrivance possible into its story, its charming fluff and sharp humor may be enough to win the hearts of romance fans.

"[11] Plugged In (publication) reviewer Paul Asay opined that while the story is "fairly predictable", it illustrated well "that sex and romance aren't synonymous; that kindness matters; and that even in moments of disappointment, God may be operating behind the scenes.

"[12] Tara McNamara of Common Sense Media commented on the film's religious themes, writing that "the movie's faith-based elements has a mic-drop moment, but it happens without a single line of dialogue and isn't jarring or forced."

[13] In a mixed review for the Los Angeles Times, Michael Ordoña praised many of the cast members but criticized the film's determination "to be PG-clean" and Finley's character, saying she lacked personality.
