IGN
Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson have solid goofball vs. grump chemistry in an entertaining action-comedy. - 60
Variety
A throwback buddy action-comedy that offsets its run-of-the-mill sense of humor with a pair of appealing leads. - 50
IndieWire
Despite a fun premise and a well-structured first act, “The Man from Toronto” tries to do too many things at once and devolves into a strange bouillabaisse of studio comedy tropes. - 50
Boston Globe
It’s nasty and clumsy, tonally erratic, lacking in texture, and pretty stupid. - 40
The Guardian
Nothing is really offensive or incompetent, but it never rises to the level of funny or interesting, either. - 30
Slashfilm
The Man From Toronto struggles throughout the entire film to establish a consistent tone. - 25
The A.V. Club
For a character-driven “mistaken identity” comedy that lives or dies based on the humorous interactions between two A-list leads, its lousy script barely constitutes life support. - 25
