The A.V. Club
Anyone who's been closely involved with a wedding knows exactly how these beleaguered schmucks feel. Those who haven't may just take Confetti as a lighthearted but convincing argument for elopement. - 75
Entertainment Weekly
Must viewing for the Bridezillas set, this winning pageant of gaudy bad taste is the work of some of the U.K.'s most popular comedy performers. - 70
Village Voice
If nothing else, this affectionately off-the-wall confection offers exuberant confirmation of every suspicion you might ever have had that the English are charmingly eccentric. They're barking mad. - 70
Los Angeles Times
Under the insanity and unsexy nudity, Confetti has a sweet center. Comic timing, themes of tolerance and commitment and the marriage of farce and empathy lift the film above the mockumentary pack. - 60
Variety
Picture is reminiscent less of Richard Curtis' romcoms and more of Christopher Guest's mockumentaries, with a dash of early Mike Leigh. - 50
ReelViews
Confetti is an excellent study of what happens when someone botches Christopher Guest's mockumentary format. - 50
San Francisco Chronicle
May be too convincing for its own good. - 40
The New York Times
Content to go only a third of the way to the bottom of its characters, the movie gives each a few comic tics and leaves it at that.
