Los Angeles Times -
This sleek and sunny comedy is an all-too-rare example of smart and inventive Hollywood filmmaking.

Entertainment Weekly -
The number of levels on which these pros trade on their diminished reputations makes the movie an inside joke rather than a funny one. If Spade thinks otherwise, he's nucking futs.

Chicago Tribune -
The best thing about star and co-writer David Spade's Dickie Roberts, Former Child Star is the end-title sequence, a big, sassy sing-along in which dozens of old TV child stars spew out defiant jokes about their old careers and fame's fickle fingers.
