I read all the reviews about this movie while watching it. Whether it was rated 9/10 or 1/10, they were all correct. Ultimately how you will react to this movie depends on what sort of person you are.
If you like correctness, accuracy, and expect everything to be right and make sense in a movie, you will hate this, score it badly, and agree with all the negative reviews.
If what drives you is emotion, seeing beauty even when it's surrounded by flaws, if you have a strong anima, and if you love Emily Blunt - then watch this movie.

This movie is just weird. In order to enjoy it just don't take it seriously because it doesn't even take itself seriously. The story is ridiculous and cheesy but enjoyable because weirdly the ridiculousness of it is what makes it fun and entertaining. Emily Blunt is awesome and Jamie Dornan is very good. The cinematography is stunning with amazing sceneries of the Irish landscapes, it made me fall in love with the country. Wild Mountain Thyme is a cute funny stupid movie, if you're in the mood for such films then don't miss it out.
Some people may not entirely have the same conversation or think of what the movie will end up discussing when I say that summary line. I wouldn't even want to start explaining it. It is one of the weirdest things put on film ... I'd argue in a good sense.
What I can say, Emily Blunt is quite the stunning person ... anyone should be happy to have her as his (or her for that matter) neighbor ... that being said, Jamie Dorman is playing it as straight/shy as he can. Add to that the playboy Jon Hamm (I'd like to see him do the Dorman part for a change, but that's a different story - literally) ... and you have quite the love triangle ... also a genius like Walken always helps ... no matter how bad tempered and evil intent he may be ... so great acting with an interesting love story to say the least ...

I don't get the bad reviews. This movie is one of very few movies that made me laugh and chuckle out loud. It's not your typical rom-com movie, it's quirky, and strange in an adorable way. Although at first I thought this movie could have used younger actors, Blunt and Dornan made it work. The Irish scenery is just spectacular, it's in my bucket list of places to see.
Just don't overthink this movie, just enjoy the silliness and quirkiness of the ride. You might want to have closed caption on though (I do with all British movies, or those with Irish, Scottish accents). It's a feel good movie, nuff said. We could all use some these days.
The movie is OK and rather beautiful, but that final confrontation between the romantic leads is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. And not even good weird or cute weird, just really really weird and unbelievable.
