Synopsis
Despite being well into adulthood, brothers Doug and Steve Butabi still live at home and work in the flower shop owned by their dad. They exist only to hit on women at discos, though they're routinely unsuccessful until a chance run-in with Richard Grieco gets them inside the swank Roxbury club. Mistaken for high rollers, they meet their dream women, Vivica and Cambi, and resolve to open a club of their own.

Washington Post
I will admit that this TV skit stretched out to a filament-thin 83 minutes is idiotic, but I mean that in a good way. - 60
Variety
The track record of SNL-drawn movies is dire ("It's Pat," "Stuart Saves His Family," "Blues Brothers 2000"), and this one stands just a peg higher, as an amiable, if flyweight, di-version. - 50
Los Angeles Times
Kattan and Ferrell do their best to fill out the shallow Butabis. - 30
TV Guide Magazine
Steve and Doug's story just isn't funny, and it would take far better writing than Kattan, Ferrell and Steve Koren can muster to make it less than an ordeal. - 25
Chicago Sun-Times
The sad thing about A Night at the Roxbury is that the characters are in a one-joke movie, and they're the joke. - 25
San Francisco Chronicle
One could criticize A Night at the Roxbury for being a comedy that provides not a single laugh. That would be too easy. - 20
L.A. Weekly
That Amy Heckerling produced and, supposedly, had an uncredited hand in scripting this turkey is the saddest thing I've heard all year. - 20
Film Threat
Its forced slapstick egregiously mugs the audience for laughs.
