一句话评论：
《曾经》并非一部完美的影片，尤其是开头的部分，是整部作品中最薄弱的一个环节，处理得不够稳妥，但在华丽的音乐的衬托下，故事随即进入了一段美丽的爱情中，很容易就让观众忽略了那么一点小瑕疵。

——电影手册

这是一部成熟饱满的音乐电影，内容与歌曲的衔接严丝合缝，一点都不突兀。

——综艺

用一双电影人的眼睛、一颗诗人的心，创作出这个动人的爱尔兰故事，影片中更是包罗了多首经典的歌曲。

——纽约时报

约翰。卡尼的执导方式谦逊、不装腔作势，能够看得出来，影片的原始剧本肯定短的要命，剩下的，就用音乐来说话吧。

——电影威胁

影片通过音乐制造了一个独特的故事环境，这里有一对通过歌声来表达情感的情侣，他们之间的爱情，是不求回报的，就像音乐本身一样，有时候安静舒缓，有时候荡气回肠。

——噪音评论

Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
