Arizona Republic
There are no surprises here, just a by-the-numbers comedy that's better, and funnier, than it has a right to be, thanks to the efforts of the actors in it. - 50
Chicago Sun-Times
The movie's pleasures are scant, apart from its observance of Gene Siskel's Rule of Swimming Pool Adjacency, which states that when well-dressed people are near a swimming pool, they will - yeah, you got it. - 50
Miami Herald
You Again is at its funniest in the early scenes, when everyone is pretending all is well beneath forced smiles and plotting eyes. - 40
Austin Chronicle
A lot of gunk: dance-offs, sing-alongs, awkward exes, and a dirty-talking White blasting through, I'm afraid, the last bits of her novelty. That again? - 40
Chicago Reader
Bitchy cheerleaders and swimming pool catfights are just two of the tedious cliches propping up this brittle comedy. - 38
Orlando Sentinel
Disney's effort to turn Kristen Bell into America's Sweetheart reaches its tipping point with You Again, a flat romantic comedy that packages her in a funny setup and surrounds her with funny people. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Has no inherent laughs, so an extremely versatile and talented cast struggles mightily to make something funny that simply isn't. - 30
Variety
Manages to squander three generations of formidable actresses.
