Wickedly mocking but empathetic, able to laugh at its characters while paying attention to their sorrows, this subversive comedy about self-esteem resists the notion that films have to timidly remain within tidy genre rules.

ReelViews
While Muriel's Wedding has its moments of exhilarating humor, it is, as often as not, downbeat and even mean-spirited.

Rolling Stone
A crowd pleaser that spices a tired formula with genuine feeling.

There's poignant drama in this brash, sometimes overstated film, and Muriel's transformation is truly touching.

The New York Times
Muriel's Wedding runs into trouble when it looks for poignancy too openly, working better at giddy moments than in its occasional sad ones. Most of the time, Mr. Hogan keeps his story light and surprising.
