New York Daily News
Eddie Murphy's latest comedy, The Adventures of Pluto Nash, takes place in the year 2087, which is about the earliest he can hope to be forgiven. - 30
TV Guide Magazine
There are worse movies, but that's no excuse. Rarely has so much money delivered so little entertainment. - 25
The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
A limp Eddie Murphy vehicle that even he seems embarrassed to be part of. - 20
New Times (L.A.)
Only Quaid, as a semiretarded horny robot, and Cleese as a fussy chauffeur hologram seem to get it. Even Murphy, as the titular nightclub big shot in outer space, forgets to be actually funny until the climax. - 20
Austin Chronicle
In terms of execution this movie is careless and unfocused. - 20
Variety
The proper mix is never found. Ill-conceived and expensive project that winds up looking like a bunch of talented thesps slumming it. - 20
Los Angeles Times
It's not awful, but the high cost of a movie ticket these days seems like a steep price to pay for 90 minutes of air conditioning and production design. - 10
L.A. Weekly
Murphy slogs his way through this dismally dull sci-fi comedy.
