The New York Times
The movie's comic heart consists of a series of indescribably loopy, elaborately conceived happenings that are at once rigorous and chaotic, idiotic and brilliant. - 50
Chicago Reader
The earnestness of some of the drama in the only deceptively unsophisticated narrative may be more shocking than any of the gross-outs. - 25
USA Today
Not since Andy Kaufman's reign of terror has a supposed funnyman been so self-indulgently persistent in testing a fan's patience. - 25
Miami Herald
Formidably stupid. - 25
New York Daily News
Exhaustingly manic but curiously unfunny movie. - 20
Rolling Stone
It feels manufactured to be suitable for mass consumption. - 10

Do not bring children to this movie unless you want them to have nightmares for weeks. - 10
Washington Post
In a sense, this is a horror film, worse than anything Andy Kaufman could dream up, in which Green tries to outgross himself.
