Synopsis
Playboy Thomas Fuentes has so far been able to skate by in life on good looks and charm alone. But when his duplicitous relationships with three women -- impassioned waitress Cici, meticulous lawyer Lorena and bored socialite Patricia -- spiral out of control, he suffers a mental breakdown. His doctor recommends that he choose just one girlfriend -- but can he choose in time before they discover his deception?

Philadelphia Inquirer
A girls-just-wanna-have-fun farce. - 60
TV Guide Magazine
The energy is infectious, and while the female empowerment angle is no doubt sincere, the whole up-tempo construction jiggles a bit too much to be taken seriously. - 60
The A.V. Club
The fun wears thin once it becomes clear that the only trick the film has to offer is footage of the women fighting and bonding over their shared love of the handsome but uncharismatic Verástegui. - 50
Chicago Tribune
It's a shame that these actors, stars already in the Latino community, with most also having played small parts in Hollywood's more white-bread movies, got such a poorly written script for their American coming-out party. - 50
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Most of Chasing Papi is a loud, frantic mess, a movie that wants to be a screwball farce but is simply farcical and screwy. - 40
L.A. Weekly
Remarkably, it took four writers to concoct this tin-eared, slighter-than-slight farce. - 30
Austin Chronicle
Ultimately sinks under the weight of its good intentions. It’s like watching Univision or Telemundo on the big screen. - 30
Chicago Reader
Frantic and unfunny.
