TheWrap -
The acting is universally excellent, particularly Fey, who’s shrewdly fulfilling our expectations while playing off them.

Movie Nation -
Tina Fey gives her finest, funniest big screen performance by essentially doing in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot what she did so well on TV’s “30 Rock.”

Entertainment Weekly -
What work better in the movie are mostly smaller moments: the jokes that land, the rapport between the reporters, and all the weirdly ordinary ways people manage to find a new normal, even in the most WTF circumstances.

|
The New Yorker -
The filmmakers keep to the surface of the bluntly rowdy story while conveying apolitical layers of regret and exasperation, in wanly comic and affectingly melodramatic action alike.

Arizona Republic -
Ficarra and Requa never quite strike a successful balance between comedy and drama, making the whole thing feel a bit off.
