Chicago Sun-Times -
The film is a consistently funny gem with moments of inspired lunacy.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service -
Garlin doesn’t discover anything new about this well-documented phenomenon. But rounding up his (under-employed) comic pals and turning them loose on Little League is funny enough by itself.

The Dissolve -
Dealin’ With Idiots is at its strongest when it forgets about plot and character development altogether (which is most of the time) and gives itself over to the laid-back pleasure of improvisation among veteran professionals finding and exploring a good groove together.

More disappointing, the performances just aren't quite as funny and focused as they should be. Willard and Kind are both very funny guys when they are used right, but they both seem a bit at sea here, and their characters never come into sharp focus.

The New York Times -
Mr. Garlin has such a soft touch that at times the film feels feather-light, almost devoid of emotional traction.
