Austin Chronicle
Smith gives the appearance of wanting to provoke, but along with his smuttiness, he wears his heart on his sleeve. - 75
ReelViews
For two-thirds of its running length, Zack and Miri is vintage Smith - profane humor that knows no boundaries and obeys no rules. What's most amazing about Smith's barrage of hard-R jokes isn't the range of subjects he covers, but how few of them "miss." - 75
Chicago Tribune
Zack and Miri has a bright, chipper look to it, thanks to cinematographer Dave Klein, a frequent Smith colleague. Wintertime in Pittsburgh never looked so good. - 75
Chicago Sun-Times
Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks make a lovable couple; she's pretty and goes one-for-one on the bleep language, and Rogen, how can I say this, is growing on me, the big lug. - 75
Rolling Stone
Naughty and nice is a killer-hard combo to pull off. Stick with Rogen and Banks. They rock it. - 70
Variety
It would be too much to say that what Smith has come up with here is inspired, but it is pretty funny and very energetic. - 60
The Hollywood Reporter
Despite shortcomings and implausibility linked to their roles as written, Rogen and Banks come off with surprising charm and grace. - 60
Village Voice
The biggest titters at a recent preview screening came during a scene in which Mewes shows off his dick--as though, at last! Still, how Jason Segal of him. Does Apatow always get there first?
