Chicago Sun-Times
It's a screwball comedy. It's also, I have to say, a feel-good movie that made me smile a lot. - 50
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
After watching Post Grad, you may wonder whether Hollywood will ever stop making generic comedies with zero tolerance for originality. - 40
Village Voice
In 2009. Vicky Jenson's live-action debut is as cartoonish as her work on "Shrek," and that's OK for the comic bits. The rest seems like a remarkably cynical cross-breed—for all demographics, but, ultimately, for none. - 40
The Hollywood Reporter
An innocuous -- to the point of blandness -- look at the "hardships" of a recent college grad. - 40
Variety
As fiction characters go, Ryden seems as dull as they come, making it hard to muster much sympathy for her plight. - 38
Philadelphia Inquirer
Ostensibly a comedy, and a feeble and innocuous one at that, Post Grad is one of those what-were-they-thinking? - 33
The A.V. Club
When a film whose cast includes Michael Keaton, Jane Lynch, Fred Armisen, Craig Robinson, Demetri Martin, and the now rarely seen Carol Burnett can’t scare up more than a smattering of laughs, the patient was never meant to live in the first place. - 25
Miami Herald
An annoying, tedious little film.
