Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
The surprise -- and intermittent delight -- of Connie and Carla is the way that it taps into the everybody-is-a-star passion of the new sing-along culture.

Chicago Tribune - Unnamed
Vardalos and Collette have mighty pipes, but it's Collette who moves with the confidence and flair of a musical theater veteran. Watching this film, I found myself caring less and less about the fairly predictable and safe story and waiting impatiently for the next number.

Philadelphia Inquirer - Carrie Rickey
The chief appeal of this affectionate story is its embrace of those who are not thinner, richer and more glamorous than the moviegoers.
50
Washington Post - Michael O'Sullivan
Broad and cheesy, yet it is not utterly without a kind of junk-food appeal.
40
The A.V. Club - Scott Tobias
Seems as much an imposter in the drag-queen world as its heroines; it fronts the sort of safely asexual gay characters found on network TV.
