Reviews

Salon -
Ramis has made a fleet, unself-conscious, eminently enjoyable picture, where one-liners carom merrily like stray bullets, and where there's casual ease, like the drape of a sharpster's trousers, in the rapport between its two stars.

Rolling Stone -
Watching De Niro take Paul through his first panic attack ("I'm crying like a woman") is an unalloyed joy.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
A funny, tightly plotted, well-conceived comedy that transcends both Crystal's '90s curse and its horrible title.

San Francisco Examiner -
It's the most liberated and alive [DeNiro]'s been since his deluded Rupert Pupkin tried to kidnap Jerry Lewis in "King of Comedy."

Chicago Sun-Times -
The comedy here isn't all on the surface, and Viterelli [the bodyguard Jelly] is one reason why.
