Wootliff as a writer-director to watch." Ian Freer of Empire magazine noted the film's heartfelt, indie-romance aspirations, describing Only You as "that rare effort that could go toe-to-toe with its American counterpart, a passionate, moving love story told with nuance and heart". Similarly Peter Bradshaw described it as "a poignant and compelling Venn diagram of passion and heartache". Phil de Semlyen in Time Out called Only You a "compassionate, complex relationship drama will get you right in the feels", while in Sight & Sound Pamela Hutchinson reflected Wootliff's storytelling ability, 'a beautifully written screenplay, with a subtly symmetrical structure signposted by two spins of the mournful, urgent I Want You by Elvis Costello, but primarily driven by two recognisably familiar, fully realised characters' In The Observer, Mark Kermode felt Only You was 'a perfectly realised story of love and longing' and 'a terrifically engrossing drama about two wholly believable characters, made with the kind of wit, honesty and raw emotional intimacy that pierces right to the heart of their relationship'. In the Evening Standard, Charlotte O'Sullivan was quick to point out the original take on the subject matter, 'O’Connor has argued that Only You is "as important as I, Daniel Blake". He's right. Via Elena and Jake, Wootliff champions the marginal and so-called imperfect.'
