Chicago Sun-Times
A cheerfully energetically and very vulgar comedy. - 58
Entertainment Weekly
Ed Helms and Ving Rhames score laughs. But the breakout is "Step Brothers'" Kathryn Hahn as the tough (sales)girl who keeps up with the boys. - 50
Austin Chronicle
The script by Andy Stock and Rick Stempson (Balls Out: Gary the Tennis Coach) can, at times, be a nasty piece of work, and no amount of laughter will fully obscure the gag reflex that occasionally forms in the back of your throat. - 50
Boston Globe
You put up the cash, the movie clunks. - 50
Philadelphia Inquirer
Although Will Ferrell materializes for a goofball cameo, The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard lacks a key element that his "Talladega Nights" and "Anchor Man" both had - that is, somebody to like. - 40
L.A. Weekly
The few real laughs -- all two minutes’ worth -- come courtesy of Russ Meyer veteran Charles Napier as Dick Lewiston, the angriest macho male anachronism of the year. - 33
The A.V. Club
About Piven: When did it go wrong? When did the caustic character actor guaranteed to liven up even the dullest movie turn into a walking black hole of smarm from which no joy can escape? - 30
Variety
The movie simply doesn't deliver -- living hard, selling hard and, before it's over, finally dying hard.
