Reviews
|
The Seattle Times -
In more careless hands, Middle Man’s deranged farce could have resulted in an unchecked, undisciplined movie with nothing to say. But beneath the roller-coaster madness here is an earthbound terror that art is meant to reveal.

|
The Hollywood Reporter -
The execution is weak, and Crowley does himself no favors by repeatedly invoking the memory of more psychologically persuasive films like Five Easy Pieces and Deliverance.
|
|
Variety -
Crowley’s thinly conceived debut feature only has one big joke, and everything around it is either long-winded setup or deflating letdown.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
It commits the worst comedy crime of all — there’s no punchline.
