 Reviewers were critical of the acting of Huntington-Whiteley and co-star Shia LaBeouf.Peter Travers (of Wenner Media) stated the two "couldn't be duller".Jason Solomons of "The Observer" wrote that "we're first introduced to Rosie via a close-up of her bum, segueing straight from the film's opening sequence and titles on to the pert buttocks and underwear of our heroine", and that Huntington-Whiteley's English posh girl accent "renders her practically unintelligible when surrounded by American accents and falling masonry".
