Movieline
There are a couple of scenes of pure, sentimental genius, as well as appealingly boggled turns by Rudd and Wilson.

Village Voice
Not that How Do You Know doesn't have its moments of shamelessly entertaining shtick, much of it furnished by Nicholson (watch for a very funny visual gag about his proclivities for much younger women) and by Wilson as Lisa's current squeeze.

Arizona Republic
From its bland title to its fair-to-middlin' story, mediocre is the word that fits How Do You Know perfectly.
50
The sad part is that How Do You Know is nowhere near as dumb as it looks. A couple of comic set pieces are inspired-or would be, if Brooks's timing weren't off.
50
A low-impact romantic comedy-drama from James L. Brooks in which the central characters are strangely disconnected from one another as well as from the audience.
