ReelViews
A delightfully loopy comedy about the hijinks that occur when families collide. - 63
Movie Nation
What works beautifully are the grace notes to the craft of acting, to first love/first marriage. - 55
TheWrap
The finale, though a bit cheesy and decidedly telegraphed, is sweet and a welcome antidote to all the bare-skinned romping. - 50
RogerEbert.com
One of those paint-by-numbers romcoms that feels like you might have seen it a dozen times before. - 20
Los Angeles Times
There’s barely a convincing — or amusing — situation or interaction, including the film’s climactic nuptials, which also turn fatally contrived. - 10
The New York Times
The soullessness of the enterprise is staggering. Making clichéd, cynical gestures toward romance, Mr. Harris (whose last feature was almost a decade ago) tortured me for a full 96 minutes.
