Synopsis
When Jay and Annie first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark. To kick things up a notch, they decide – why not? – to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea – until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they’re just one click away from being laid bare to the world... but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they'll never forget, they'll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.

Chicago Sun-Times
Sex Tape feels like the halves of two different movies. There is a fun, believable comedy about family life... that is upended by the overly broad, barely funny attempts at reclaiming the sex tape. - 58
Hitfix
The film wants to be wild and dark and crazy, but it's also a big studio summer movie, and so it feels like it flirts with truly insane material, but without ever really committing to it. - 50
The Playlist
At 100-minutes, the movie drags and drags until finally losing steam in the last act and then collapses into a pile of worn out platitudes, limp gross out gags and gooey sentiment. - 50
McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Sex Tape is not quite the train wreck its TV ads make it out to be. - 40
New York Daily News
How could a movie that offers Jason Segel riffing on sex and Cameron Diaz regularly disrobing be so dull? - 40
The Dissolve
Sex Tape is a case study in how little interest American movies—and especially American sex comedies—have in dealing with sex as anything other than a source of cheap giggles and nonstop humiliation. - 33
The A.V. Club
It’s less a movie than a bad sitcom episode stretched to feature length and raunched up to an R rating. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Sex Tape is sexcruciating.
