Miami Herald
The movie isn't just hilarious: It's witty and inventive, too, and in hindsight, it isn't even all that dumb. - 80
New Times (L.A.)
Not only is Undercover Brother the funniest spy-thriller since "The Nude Bomb" (oh, behave), it feels like the proper sequel to "The Blues Brothers," crossing all kinds of lines between cartoonish buffoonery and genuine compassion for its characters. - 80
L.A. Weekly
The film works no matter which side of the racial divide you're on, because nothing unites an audience quite like making fun of everyone. - 75
Philadelphia Inquirer
This is a smart, spirited spoof that will leave you with a smile on your face - and an appetite for some serious '70s funk to play on the eight-track in your solid gold Cadillac convertible. - 75
Baltimore Sun
It has a premise that never stops percolating. - 75
ReelViews
Seems breezier and less self-conscious than the Mike Myers franchise. - 75
New York Daily News
Satires like this tend to throw a lot of stuff at the wall, and in Undercover Brother, a surprising amount sticks. - 75
San Francisco Chronicle
The picture is crammed with shameless satire, engaging moments of pure silliness and jokes that border on the outrageous. It combines relentless energy with an aura of good nature for a formula that works.
