Liam Lacey of '' The Globe and Mail '' , gave the film two stars out of four , stating , " the plot collapses into a fairy-tale ending that is offered as an odd remedy for the characters ’ facile defeatism . " Peter Howell of the '' Toronto Star '' also criticized the plot , stating , " A miscast and mismatched Rossif Sutherland and Karine Vanasse stretch credulity at every quirk-filled turn as they follow a bag of loot and chase family problems on the long trek from New York to Ontario 's ' Gateway to the North . ' " Howell further remarked : " The eye-rolling script is the main problem . " To '' Toronto Star '' critic Linda Barnard , the film offered little to write home about . Barnard gave the film one and a half stars out of four , writing , " Even the sex is dull in '' I ’m Yours '' , ... Farlinger 's Canuck road movie that takes an ill-matched pair from New York to North Bay but ends up going nowhere . " Joe Leydon of '' Variety '' described the film as " entirely predictable and instantly forgettable , " noting the leads Rossif Sutherland and Karine Vanesse " do little to distract from the shopworn contrivances of Farlinger ’s scenario " while " struggling with sketchy roles and gaping plotholes . " Some critics found merit in the actors ' performances and the film 's overarching themes . CBC News critic Deanne Sumanac called '' I 'm Yours '' the " Sexiest Canadian Film " at the 2011 Toronto IFF . Nathalie Atkinson of the '' National Post '' described the film 's " ecstasy-fuelled motel room romp " as " coy , urgent , sexy and probably one of the hottest love scenes in a mainstream movie , Canadian or otherwise , in a long time . " Robert Bell of '' Exclaim '' writes , " An overriding theme of chance changing the world fuels the romantic trajectory of the film , " which is " touching and ultimately satisfying as a philosophically light love story . " Marc Glassman of '' Montage '' described the actors ' onscreen chemistry as " wild , exhilarating and unexpectedly emotional " stating , " '' I ’m Yours '' is a torrid journey that grips the viewer — and never lets go . " The film was noted for showcasing Northern Ontario scenery
