Reviews

Dallas Observer -
Rare is the star vehicle that is as poorly matched to its star as Drillbit Taylor, which casts Owen Wilson as a homeless Army deserter and con man, able to fool people into believing he's both a substitute teacher and a master of hand-to-hand combat.

Chicago Tribune -
"Superbad” got a deserved R rating for its unmitigated and gleeful raunch. Drillbit Taylor is cleaner in mouth but far uglier in spirit. Wilson and Mann do what they can to tone it up, but their scenes belong to a different film, and a fresher one.

The A.V. Club -
Wilson's funny. Mann's funny. But paired together here, nothing works.

Time -
Better luck next time, Owen.

The Hollywood Reporter -
A relatively lame exercise that never achieves comic traction.
