External critics' reviews

It takes a while to realize that this is actually a sly, very funny comedy, one that stays admirably deadpan every time you think it's about to veer into gross-out territory. more

Much funnier and weirder than you think. more

Unlike the vast majority of rude bigscreen comedies these days, "Prison" may actually improve with repeat viewings, since its best aspects are offhand enough to be missed the first time around. more

Odenkirk is an expert at the unexpected laugh. (This must be the first prison movie in which a cafeteria put-down involves the painter Lucian Freud.) more

The sad thing is that Arnett, Shepard and McBride quickly establish a loose, easy camaraderie that's a real pleasure to watch. The shame is that they're working with such unrewarding material. more

Let's Go to Prison ultimately feels as long as a stint in the big house. more

I'm a fan of director Bob Odenkirk, but my high hopes for this comedy were dashed by screenwriters Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, and Michael Patrick Jann, all alumi of "Reno 911"! more

Nearly laughless. more

Prison makes its 84-minute running time feel like a five-year sentence with no chance for parole. more

A comedy that locks up Will Arnett's talent and throws away the key. more
