External critics' reviews
Rolling Stone Peter Travers
This comedy is packed with p---- jokes, the cruder the better.
Miami Herald Phoebe Flowers
An unapologetically stupid and implausible movie, but in the best possible way -- it's so sure of itself, it wins you over. more
New York Post Lou Lumenick
It's still easily the funniest movie of the year. more
Boston Globe Jay Carr
The film is almost as shaky as the science, but Nichols knows how to get the most out of what amounts to a one-joke comedy, and Bening works virtual miracles. more
Baltimore Sun Ann Hornaday
A bawdy, brainy sex comedy geared toward smart people with a sophomoric streak. more
Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman
Nothing more than a sort of dumb, sort of clever fish out of water comedy. more
Portland Oregonian Shawn Levy
The trouble is that the film forsakes one sort of energy for another, and the downshift is a drag. more
Film.com Tom Keogh
Let your children have their childhood while you have a rare, grown-up experience at the multi-plex for a change. more
Chicago Tribune Marc Caro
Shandling and Nichols strain to reach a mainstream audience and wind up sounding like they, too, have been trained to tell us what we want to hear. Sorry, guys, but you don't score. more
New York Daily News Jack Mathews
The film's asset, in a walk, is Bening, whose comic timing puts Shandling to shame. more
